I’ll get the bracket design up soon… It’s quite simple though! Here are the measurements: 3.5″ x 9.5″ x 1/8″ aluminum plate, 90 degree bend at about 3.5″, the hole pattern is 4 X 1-1/16″ O.C. (3/16″ dia). The 1/4″ holes to receive the camera mount depends on the camera tripod grommet position. If you had the plate bent you could tap the holes with a home shop drill. If you take the head and your camera to a metal shop it should only take them 5-10 minutes to fabricate something.
If you want to learn more about the controllers here are the manuals:
