Rich B, I pretension the poles on the Spitfire using cords cut to length and grommets at each end. That anchors the poles and allows me to work with the fly until it's erect. Once the poles are pretensioned, the rest is intuitive, simple, and fast. Stake out the fly and if desired, go inside and clip on the mesh inner. I've also got a plastic ground cloth with grommets for pretensioning. Intend to pitch just the fly/ground cloth during an upcoming short Fall tour. Makes for a 25 sq ft space vs 18 when using the inner.

That was not me in the video you mentioned.
