David,
On Saturday I did a group build with 40 Boy Scouts. What seems to work is this:
- 6 boys per table
- 1 "instructor" per table supervising
- 1 overall instructor with individual step instructions on an
overhead projector
The overall instructor can also take a table if needed. Tell the
group not to begin the step until it has been explained. Put the step
on the projector, hold the parts and demonstrate a dry fit, explain
any warnings, and then have all of the students execute the one step
and step. Ask the instructors if their table is done and when all say
yes move to the next step and repeat.
But even with all of that detail and that much help there will still
be mass confusion. We used the Quest Starhawk for our kit and a few
still got messed up. It'll be fun to see them fly at ROCtober.
Thanks,
Mike
