Here's a pan/tilt mechanism for the Foxeer Mix FPV camera.
I'm uploading this now for the people that asked, but have not flown it yet. Once I do, I'll add a video here.
Parts are rotated in the proper orientation for printing. I printed them in PETG on my Ender 3, using a thin layer height for best layer adhesion. (0.1mm layer height, 0.4mm extrusion width, if I remember right) Use what works best for you and your printer though... lol
It's made to fit well on this pan servo that I've modded for more travel, though it should work on just about any similar sized servo. I like these for the smooth panning and the travel though. (180º stock, can be modded for more)

Here's how to mod the servo for maximum throw:
This video goes over the assembly, it's for the Caddx Turtle V2 version but should all apply here since they are so similar. FYI, I used some spare tapered M2 screws from the Turtle cameras to assemble this one as well, since I had no suitable screws in the box with the Mix. You may have to source something that will work.
Tilt servo isn't too critical, just find something around 9G or smaller that's smooth without a lot of slop. It's just fitted on top of the board cover with servo mounting tape. The hardest part will be locating the small linkage for it, I have a few spare ones from 450 size electric helis that I use. They are not nearly as common as they used to be though, getting harder to find.
