Thank you, that helps a lot.

With the information in the back of the Alien Archive 3, I wanted to revisit some part of this question. Do all of the actions listed in the "Actions While Mounted" apply?

Do you still need to do the survival checks to ensure they go off, I think the answer may be yes based on HammerJack's statement but is there a difference between a free thinking creature vs. a mechanized construct that does not have free though?

What part of this section of AA3 apply currently to mechanic's drones?

I have found a few threads on drone riding and most questions have been answered but there are still a some I still have.

How is damage assigned when targeting drone/rider?

Does shape and riding style of the drone change damage assignment or cover provided if any?

Would this setup also cause some form of disadvantage for the mechanic while shooting?

The situation:

A player in a game uses a bipedal drone, player is a small build and the drone is Medium egg shaped build. The saddle is attached to the back of the drone allowing the rider to see over the top of the drone but is more or less behind the drone, think piggy back style with a saddle instead of hugging on to it. At most the head is visible enough so they mechanic can direct the drone as needed and can lean out to shoot with their pistol during combat as needed.
