Things required
1)Servos(I used standard Futaba S3003 servos)
2)Fiberglass sheet
3)Cutting tools
4)Flame Torch or gas stove for Bending
5)Araldite
First cut two strips of fiberglass measuring 2.5 cm X 26 cm

For the camera tray cut a 3.5 cm X 23 cm
As my camera's base measured 10 cm X 2.5 cm I divided the strips accordingly. After marking it I bent the strips by heating it over a gas burner.

good job Himadri Roy...
good luck
Nice work, but that is acrylic sheet, not fibreglass. :)
Nicely done but then its not fiberglass its acrylic sheet. (as point by Pravesh)
Nicely done.. Video of it in action please? Are you gonna control this from the flight controller itself or do you have something else in mind?
Thank you Gunnu, Pravesh Sir, Satya Sir and Medicineman! And sorry for the blunder(naming acrylic as fiberglass) :banghead: :banghead:
@medicineman: Yes I will post the video shortly. Currently I am testing this out with the FC, planing to write my own code and make the stabilizing system!
Here's a video of the Gimbal Working!
