Cool Having trouble with your camera mount?

Hey, i came up with an ingenius method of moving our camera around on two axes, after several days of unsuccessfully trying increasingly compicated and impractical solutions.

If you take apart a joystick ... (you probably can already see where i'm going with this), it has built in a nice little two-axis rotational system with the axes being read by potentioemeters. Well, with a little creativity and a Dremel and some superglue, I managed to successfully replace the potentiometers with servos.

They say that the difference between genius and insanity is measured only by success. Well I gotta say, this was incredibly successful.

I'll be taking some pictures for you all at my next meeting (tuesday)
