THE ANTENNA STAND SYSTEM
ALLIGATOR CLIP IN PLACE
Antennas are available from
Radio Shack. Each antenna
costs about $8 (Cnd) or $5 (US)
The Pros:
• Simple and fast to mount
aircraft onto stand.
• Fast and easy to make
altitude changes.
• Unlike "The Rod System", you
will never have to look for
the "right" length rod.
The Cons:
• Costs can add up if you are
planning to provide players
with a number of game
stands.
• Can be a bit of work to
attach Alligator Clip to
antenna.

1) 3.5" is the minimum width for a stand (for 1/72nd scale models).
2) 3/4" is a good thickness for a stand; use plywood or particle board.
3) Drill six or seven large holes into bottom of game stand; holes do not go all
the way through; each hole should be large enough to hold between
5 and 6 metal washers; may also fill holes with pewter/lead or pennies.
4) Glue a cardboard base over holes to hold in washers.
