Whistling bomb!!!
Purpose
This model is a remix of JeremyBoswell's Whistling Bomb, featuring longer tail fins. It is designed to function as a dropping system for RC aircraft, allowing for controlled deployment of a whistling projectile.
Practical Uses
When used with an RC plane, the user can trigger the release by manipulating the turning joystick to slide a component off the stick. This causes the projectile to fall to the ground while producing a loud whistling sound. Note that users should avoid blocking sensors with tape or the rocket itself, as this may cause the drone to incorrectly detect that it has already landed.

Assembly Guidance
To facilitate the dropping mechanism, a small, long needle (preferably plastic, such as a Kerplunk game piece) must be fitted into the tail fin at the back of the print. For optimal flight effects, it is recommended to add weight specifically to the front 1/3 of the missile.
