These are the pieces I designed to add servo-tilting functionality to my HGLRC Veyron35 CR Pusher. I consider it strictly to be a prototype, so for more context on how and why, please watch this YouTube video which explains the reasoning and shows some more details about the build:

In terms of materials, the camera mounts were printed in PETG, but any hard plastic should work fine. This is to make sure the CaddX Polar camera and iFlight Naked GoPro are locked together, and the servo control rod will also slot into the holes on one side of the camera mounts - depending on the quality of print, you may want/need to drill these out as well.

The rest of the pieces I recommend using TPU so that bumps and crashes don't phase it, and to some degree I believe the flexibility also aids in dampening the motion.

In terms of printing, every part is designed so that no supports are required at all, as long as you orient the parts onto the correct face. For the servo mount, the infill can be whatever, but for the other piece I recommend either 100% infill or enough walls that the parts are printed solid anyway.

For fasteners, you'll need an assortment of M2 screws to mount the FPV camera, pivot mounts and servo mount, then you'll need an M3 bolt to secure the naked GoPro to the right cam mount, and then two M3 bolts with nuts to serve as the main pivot.

Again, this is a prototype, and I'll probably make changes in the future, but anyone curious is free to download these and try them out.
