Hi
We've got a 600DL, and initially suffered from the same problem. (Other tents suffer from it too, so it's not just the Evolutions.) After much head scratching, we came up with this....
The side to side poles MUST be dead centre on the flysheet before applying the tension. I.e, they must be sticking out from the sleeve an equal length on both sides.
Similarly, for the fore and aft poles, make sure that you have the front (sharp) end of the flysheet as close to the end of the poles as possible before applying the tension. No matter how much you haul and tug and swear at the thing once the poles are tensioned, you cannot shift the flysheet enough to flatten the groundsheet to make it neat.
Having said all that, unless it's really bad, it doesn't seem to matter too much, once you have dumped all the crates and buckets and other debris inside.
