I couldn't find any RunCam 6 mounts so I created this to hold the camera and an adjustable base that will mount on a servo to provide pan viewing. Requires two M3x6 screws to mount the camera holder to the base. The base has a hole that you center over a double-sided servo horn or servo wheel or four-sided servo horn. Drill small pilot holes in base to screw horn to the base with servo screws. I didn't include those since the holes on the horns can vary. The camera doesn't require any tape or glue since it is a really snug fit, especially if you print it on its bottom (due to slight sag in filament bridging). If you print camera holder on end the fitment will be less tight, but still hold camera well (preferred print orientation). Supports will be needed either way for clean print. The screen and buttons are still easy access. I added venting to match the factory holder and vents on camera. I printed in ASA with 3 walls and 15% infill. I do add a modifier in the slicer to make the base solid infill where the screws will go through and attach the servo control horn. If you don't have that option just make the whole thing solid infill. It could be made with TPU, PETG or even PLA, but I like the UV and heat resistance of ASA.

Edit: I added filets to the base uprights for added strength and rigidity. Pictures show original with no filets. I also added a base with slots for a 15mm wide strap. I strap it to the battery with a battery strap.
