Quartermass - Have you had a look at the Dynamic Ship list which lists all ships with Wiki Pages ? It can be found on page 9 of The Alphabetial Shiplist thread in the discussion section of the bb (I really should find out how to drop a link into my posts :? ).

Back to topic...

I designed a universal joint for a ball turret...

However, after much testing I saw that the turret doesn't rotate like a police camera mounted beneath a copter.

So I came up with this holder instead...

Ball bearings (that I haven't put in the model) move the ball turret about.
