Rocket Name: Estes X-Prize SpaceShipOne
Kit Name: Estes - X-Prize SpaceShipOne {Kit}
Flyer's Name: Mark Thompson
Motors: B4-4

Low power first flight nearly put it in the trees. SS1 Arched immediately off the pad to an altitude of maybe 75 feet. Ejection seemed late due to closeness of the earth! No damage; will fly on higher power soon to see if that might help.
