requires tone generator mod

AG1 to activate siren

my ideas just came back and then i realized that the 3 HP siro drone used to exist.. yes i was determined enough to make an actual chopper.

The most peculiar housing design is used on the smaller 3 hp models. This design uses a wide, flat skirt mounted below the 9 or 10-port rotor and stator, with the rain shield being its own separate piece held up by a support attached to the top of the stator. The skirt and rain shield work together to project the siren's intake and rotor sound outwards evenly, however this design has a critical flaw. The rain shield is held on by only a single screw, which can come loose over time due to wear and tear, and the jolt of the siren starting and stopping. Eventually, the rain shield can come loose and begin spinning violently as the siren operates. This will damage the siren and its mount over time, eventually resulting in either the siren being jolted off of its mount, or the rain shield flying off. One such example of this problem is an infamous 3 hp Siro-Drone in Toledo, OH, jokingly nicknamed the "Hula-HOR" by enthusiasts.
