## Questions & Answers

**Q: I can’t get the rocket-like black stabilizers to stay in. Is there a trick?**
A: Push down hard and they should pop in. We actually duct taped ours on as there was no need to remove them once placed the first time.

**Q: How far does it launch the balls?**
A: About 5 or 6 feet up in the air (eye-level for an adult). Over my son’s head, but he hits it on the way down.

**Q: where can I find replacement balls??**
A: What size balls did you order? The balls that are shown as an add-on item don't actually fit.

**Q: ball diameter please?**
A: The ball that comes with kit
