Originally Recorded 8/1/2017
So when 6PM rolled around, I got a little surprise. The rotator was not working, and the horn was faced right at me. I later called the EMA who were already aware of the issue and got Federal Field to service it. Luckily, this malfunction allowed me to get a little carried away with the camera angles. I even got the drone out for the first time but due to a slow memory card, it only recorded a tiny snippet rather than the full test. But don't worry, this certainly isn't the last time the drone will be used. There were also some developing storms in the background that looked impressive from above. Thankfully, the wide angle caught some of this convective action even though the drone didn't.
Since I was standing directly in front of the horn, I also got a little more than I bargained for. My ears were definitely ringing from that shrill ,130 dB scream. So don't underestimate the sound of a 2001. Sure, they may not be the most interesting, but they pack a punch.
Enjoy, and as always comment, like, and subscribe for more. Thanks!

Love the drone shot! Too bad the rotator aint working.
Great Drone shot Brandon! I really love the extra effect it adds! Definitely hope to see more shots like this in your future videos.
Thanks Nick! I'm definitely going to be using it more often.
DSRX100 if you're interested, there's a 2001, down the street from where I live now in Valparaiso Indiana, not sure what day and time they have their tests, I called one of the fire stations and they told me that it was the first Tuesday of the month, and at 10, or 11am.
T-Bolt Failure=Mass panic
2001 Failure="Meh"
Dont get triggered! XD
Well Damn. Rotator failure. Nice one!
Broken rotator.
For some reason, hearing this 2001 run alert is quite soothing
Nice. I'm a fellow subscriber. LOVE the drone footage. I think more siren enthusiasts need to use drones for tests. it makes them so much better and cooler in my opinion. Too bad the rotator didn't work..........Wonder why it failed? This 2001 looks quite new..........
I like how there's a towering cumulus taking shape off in the distance, almost like the siren test is its wake up call.
I love the drone shot!! Nice video!!
Nice! Love the drone shot.
Drones are a marvelous thing.
My town has that same tornado siren ..... and it went off two times during a severe thunderstorm warning .
I love the drone shot, plus I guess the rotator failed.
Thanks! Yeah, it definitely failed (and it's not even that old) but it should be working now.
DSRX100 Y’all know what broke on the rotator
Collector rings collector rings collector rings collector rings
if it were the collector rings that broke, the siren would likely not wind up at all. the collector rings connect to the chopper motor.
Phone Goat have you been watching tsm webisodes? you sound like the sirens teasing the whelen. lol!
The roatater tailed or is broken
Got a Question: Can I use this audio for a video?

I guess we will be seeing move videos of sirens filmed by drones as the drones get cheaper :)
