On my foam board servo rover, I mixed the rudder with the camera pan servo.

I just ordered the parts for this build, but I went with a 2s 500mah battery because I want to fly slow and floaty. Hope it works out

You could stick a foamboard rudder to the camera to help the airplane turning.

Got the FT Mini Scout on my workbench right now (haven't glued it together, though), and THIS Video gives me a chance to see how to mount a camera on it (not that I will mount on a servo, though!).
Let's face it --- I'm CHEAP...! An airplane that cost about a Buck, a camera that was less than $12, a Very Well Used motor and esc ($5 Bucks at a swap meet), 2 nearly worn out 5g. servos, a battery made from 3 single cells, and a $5 Rx. with only 4 channels, what MORE can I save on? (Bet I don't have over $25 invested...!) Haha!
Yes, I have other planes too. A boxed Eflite Slick 3-D 480 with all the "trimmings" needed to complete it (but I'm not good enough to fly it - yet!). I'll contend to fly FT Models, until I don't make "Final Landings" every time I try to fly.
Thanks for the inspiration, Adam...

You need only up set camera to use gimbal full

That was a lucky near miss at the end!
