A gimbal includes a first lug housing. The first lug housing includes a first base plate and a first lug protruding from the second surface of the first base plate. The gimbal also includes a second lug housing. The second lug housing includes a second base plate and a second lug protruding from the second surface of the second base plate. In addition, the gimbal includes a shaft passing through the first and second lugs, thereby connecting the first lug housing to the second lug housing, such that the first base plate is facing the second base plate. The gimbal also includes a first void in the second base plate, opposite the first lug, such that the first lug extends into the first void of the second base plate.
