So I decided to replace the heavy metal bearings for plastic ones that dont require counterweights. They are plastic bearings PCM 16003 glass balls 17x35x8. I believe they were about 8 bucks apiece. Since there is no info on how to use analog servos that I could find I'm going to 3d print some new eye plates that will let me mount more dynamical 320s to daisy chain. At 25 bucks each not a cheap options but an easy one.  how do you add pictures? I have some to share though the end results looks and works the same.

Hello, good job!. We are working in a new "non" mobile  "plastic" bearings for esthetical purpose only. The weight is only 8 grms aprox each.

Please see attached a picture with a sample made with a 3D printer.
