$5 drone camera tilter

I just started learning how to fly a drone, and after my first flight, I realized that the biggest problem when flying with a camera (without gimbal) is that you can't adjust your camera's angle while in the air. You can buy a gimbal for at least $70, which isn't cheap. Another option is to land, set your camera, and fly again, but this method is inefficient and takes time. So I started thinking about a solution. What I came up with is a servo attached to my drone, connected to the output signal of the gimbal. My drone (Freex mcfx) has this output if yours does too, then you can make my project! If not, it's more complicated because you'll need to add an additional battery, receiver, and transmitter. This project is really simple, and I think anyone can do it. It should take up to one hour to complete, including 3D printing. The total cost is about $5, and it's compatible with every camera that has a GoPro mount.
