I have an XIT Photo XT57TRS tripod that I use with the AXT1 with the AX1.
With the removable plate it seems to work well :

Tripod screws are 1/4-20, so an angle bracket and a screw and a wingnut could
help. Tilt the head over 90º.
I did something similar to attach a Nagoya NMO base station mount to a tripod.
Photos and description here. I’ve since replaced the hex nut with a wingnut.
I raised this issue after getting my AX1 with tripod adaptor, since it fit
neither of my consumer tripods. You need either a really small tripod head or a
adjustable ball-type adapter that elevates the AX1 up enough to use the BNC
plug to the radio.
Here is a link to one small ball head
I made an adapter
I uses a flat aluminum bar with a hole drilled and tapped for the camera mount
and then another hole with dnc adapter for coax and antenna.
Make short as possible fron tripod.

Hello list,
I now almost have everything I need for my kx3 portable setup. I want to use
the ax1 with an axt1 adapter and my tripod has a removable camera plate
which seems to prevent the coax from attaching to the axt1. any suggestions
on a good tripod.
