Currently, the yaw-axis servo is experiencing stabilization issues, since the bolts are too far out from the servo. This was placed initially due to interference from the tripod. For the next iteration, we will utilize counterbore/countersink holes, and a bigger baseplate, to bring the bolts closer.
Essentially, bring the current holes in, thicken the aluminum plate if needed, add the counterbore holes, and good to go! You can also tap the holes and have small screws run through.

Modified the design in Figure 3 so that the mounts can now take another bolt to increase stability (bolts now make a triangle)
The mount need to be re-manufactured because there are new material added.

The mount on the left is also modified, and it also needs to be re-manufactured because new material are added.
Both modifications are made because the previous design don’t have much room to work with in terms of drilling more screw holes on the already made part to make the servo more stable.

The aluminium sheets in this design are the same as in the previous, (because I have not seem the actual thing in person so I don’t know whether I should thicken it.)
