Re: Modeling Honor Harrington Ships.

The club I play at has a group of WW1 fighter planes (1/144 scale)
mounted on radio antennae to provide height, the plane has a small round
knob ( the head of a pin) on the bottom, the antenna has a clip on the
end, creating a ball and socket joint.	The antenna has 8 (or 9)
segments, so the height is quantified.	The base is hexagonal to
correspond to the hexes printed on the	LARGE canvas map on which the
dogfights take place.  I have watched several times and it works very
well at this scale.  The rig might not work as well for FT unless you
can source smaller versions.
Hope this helps.
