Sturdy Servo Mount for 3D Printing

Hi there guys,

The official version of the servo mount has very skinny legs. I have tested 3D printed versions in PLA and PET and both have eventually sagged.

I have found that the enclosure gets pretty warm inside. Both the camera and pi generate a fair amount of heat. Sometimes it is not feasible to power down the ROV immediately and I have also been guilty of forgetting :upside_down_face: This results in a sad camera.

I will be ordering an official one with my next order which I assume is injection moulded and has some glass fill. In the interim I have designed a mount with more support to help combat this.

Hope this helps someone.
