2 Axis Camera Gimbal with Remote Shutter Release - Build

Been building my camera gimbal this afternoon.. cheap chineese gimbal.. 2 axis with remote shutter...

Its ok for the money.. but it is cheap and cheerful.. and you get what you pay for....  the remote shutter mech fouls the back of my Lumix..   so will need a bit of fettling...  it uses normal sized servos for the tilt and roll and micro for the shutter.

I am going to investigate fitting proper bearings as it just uses plastic washers and bolts for the pivots..

I bought this for my Turnigy HAL frame.. but have also ordered the HAL Gimbal which is a 3 axis gimbal (not sure why you would need pan on a Multi).. but the HAL gimbal looked very naff..  will see when I get it... the reason I ordered the HAL gimbal was that it came with the rails and mounts .. which I needed..   cheap anyway..
