Today I started my next project and finished the whistle pod rocket [WPR]. The WPR is a 2.6" heavy tube from BMS. It has a 29mm mmt. The fins are 1/4"ply. The pods are 2.2" tubes. I put a funnel made of paper mache in the top of the pod and used a balsa CR soaked in CA to center the funnel. I put balsa pads on thee high points of the whistles and sanded them to fit. I then inserted the whistle with its CR into the bottom of the tube until the pointy end went into the whistle. I secured the whistle with a ring of balsa to keep the whistle from blowing out the bottom. I had thought I was going to finish up a couple more. But on close inspection I decided to put another coat on the fins. Last Sunday one of our newer members came over so I could help him with his second high power rocket. A LOC Payloader. He wants to start to do dual deploy. When he first came out to a launch he happened to park next to me. He was flying LPR. After he saw the first HPR launch he was hooked. Asked a bunch of questions that I was a happy to answer. Bought his first HPR rocket at Springfest. I advised him as he built it. He got his L1 on the second try. So with 2 HPR launches he wants to do dual deploy. He might be a L2 with the bare minimum of flights. Here are some pictures of The WPR build. This will be the 4th attempt at making a rocket whistle. The first three were failures. I have hope for this one. I blew in one of the pods and the whistle worked. The whistles are supposed to the worlds loudest. The put out 142 db according to the manufacturer.
