Yeah, they're indoors typically but hunting cabins, etc….

Looking to install one in my Barndo. Question is about two 90 degree turns in the piping….stove will be installed in a corner at a 45…piping goes up about 17', 90 degree turn, out the wall to exterior about 4' run and then 90 degree turn up for about another 4' with cap installed. Are these two bends going to compromise drafting? I've seen installs where they do this but not when they have to go up 17' and make a turn.

Stove is not purchased but looking for used currently. Recommendations accepted. Thought was a simple rectangular version with vertical flute attaching on the top in the back and has the two "burner" places on top for a Dutch oven / coffee pot.

No, I don't want to go straight up through my wood ceiling and out the roof.

Just make sure you have a smidge of rise in the horizontal run and you'll be fine. I'll be installing a nearly identical setup in my cabin soon as well, and 2 other folks on our lease have the same setup without any issues.

Doesn't take much on the rise - 1/8" to 1/4" is all you need.

I have done something similar a couple of times and the only problem I had was that the amount of exposed pipe tended to let the smoke cool down enough for the creosote to come out of suspension. It would drip at the ell and also come out at the joints and end up on the side of the house if the wind was blowing just right.
