If you’re a first timer, then you definitely want to begin with a starter set. Rocket starter sets include the model rocket, engine, launch pad and all of the supplies you need to get launched. Other beginner rockets are ready-to-fly (RTF) rockets and E2X (easy to assemble) kits but with these kits you will still need to purchase engines and all of the launch supplies. A starter set provides you with all of the required components.
