**Q: I need a set for a team of 8 kids. This says it builds 8...but would it really be enough? I wouldn't want one to feel left out.**
A: I'd agree with those saying go for a multipack of the same kit instead of this. This has a mix of different parts and nothing planned out - it really is for you to freestyle your own designs. I could see 8 kids arguing because someone got bigger parts, or cut their fins out of the middle of a sheet so others didn't have room or something like that.

**Q: Does it come with motors**
A: No, does not come with motors.

**Q: Can you use this kit to build a multi-stage rocket?**
A: Yes, there are ample supplies in the kit for multiple builds and multi stage projects.
