Alternative to a whistle

Bonjour,
I consider the whistle as "mandatory" on a steam model to define the steam well and I have found a "noisy" alternative  :-))

With a bit of Arduino use it could play tunes.

rhavrane:
Bonjour TigerTiger,
An Arduino does not work with steam  ok2

tigertiger:
 :-) Granted  but it works with RC switches. It looks like you are using RC to control your whistle  :-) :-)

JimG:
I think the idea is to use an Arduino to control the servo on the siren valve. This will give a more precise positioning than the joystick so controlling the pitch with greater accuracy. It will also allow for programming the servo to go through a sequence of positions each corresponding to a different pitch to produce a musical effect.
