Quaternion rotation

What are people using to rotate their turrets properly? I spent a few hours reading up on Quaternions and think I grasp the basic concept. But doing minor adjustments for angled turrets for ships is still a huge pain in the ass - Surely someone has a better way, or a model viewer, or something?

<rotation yaw="0" pitch="0" roll="0" /> (values are degrees)

or you can use the online calculator at the bottom of this site (i=qx, j=qy, k=qz, real=qw)

What is being used to "preview" the changes, currently i'm hopping into game then closing to do some tweaks but i'd like to know if there is a better way.

as long as you dont add new Mod files it is enough to start a new Game, no need for a full restart

(only necesary when you added files)
