Went to Merrillville with Mitchell today to get a Finback for the first time. This thing was super loud, and it shook the ground when it faced me. You will see it blowing a ton, and for some reason it would occasionally immediately start rotating the other direction, rather than waiting a moment.
Camera: Canon VIXIA HF R700
Location: Merrillville Fire Dept (outside of town)

If the rotator fails the wind will catch on the fin and the wind will rotate it, however Whelen realized it was pointless when they remembered their sirens can only make one full rotation so they stopped making them.
