I tried to install a new bullet camera and I noticed that if I keep the marker notch (the indicator meant to stay on the top side) facing up, the view angle points to the opposite side of where the camera can tilt. I tried twisting the base part, which makes a clicking noise when we spin it but it so much stiff not even moving a bit. I was worried it might break if I applied too much force. The other camera I checked twists very easily, but this one feels stiff. Do you know the correct way to make it twist more easily? What would you suggest to make it work properly?
 
You need to unscrew the lock screw a lot.

And if the rotation is a lot, then the ones behind the base as well.

Under normal unscrewing of the set screw, it is designed to only move a little like 3 clicks, so unscrewing it more will let it move more.
