If the smell goes away with flushing of the tanks maybe they aren't using enough water during a flush. There's a tendency to think that when the "stuff" leaves the bowl, then it's time to release the flush lever. One must add plenty of water to keep things fluid, help any chemicals or additives do their job and prevent "permanent" adhesion of effluent to get stuck to the tank interior. Keeping in mind that if not enough water is used it could be a while before one uses the sensors to know when to flush. Using plenty of water helps prevent a long term stink.
Sorry about being so graphic, but I have been next to RVs that stunk like that. It's no fun on a hot summer day when the wind is blowing our direction.
Of course there are other things to check like blocked vents, or other things like what was mentioned by others.
