Default RE: Skywalker FPV

My pan mount arrived so I modified the Skywalker pod to accept it. The laser-cut pod makes it easier to modify and mount things than the original foam pod. By adding a few braces to the pod, I could mount the sub-micro servo so that the arm was level with the pan mount eyelets. I'll use a pull-pull setup with either cables or Firewire fishing line. The resultant pan will be +- 45 degrees from center. Along with my new 133 degree lens, it should provide good pan coverage during flight.
