So iv 3D printed a 2 axis servo gimbal for my quadcopter. I have put it all together only to realise one problem. How do you get the servo that controls the roll to have a strong and secure connection to the rest of the gimbal??

In this gimbal, how is the white servo arm staying on the roll servo? Why doesnt it just pop off the gear teeth once the quadcopter takes off? I understand glue might keep it on, but would you risk your camera on gluing the servo arm to the gear alone? Just that little joint??
I have screwed my servo arm into my gimbal so that is strong and stable, but I cant see how it would be safe allowing almost the whole weight of the gimbal on the servo arm to servo gear joint.
What i mean is how do I keep the roll servo arm on the white circular gear piece on the top of the servo. This is what my servo looks like http://g02.a.alicdn.com/kf/HTB1SDmM...-automatic-voltage-regulator-hollow-shaft.jpg
Thanks in advance for any replies
