turn off collisions for one... use the transporter for another...

The crucial thing to do is use Fleet Orders and command your fleet to "Stop". This will stop your ships completely in their tracks and using the transporter you can beam over, fly them to wherever you want them and they wont fly away. :) Thats if you have KM 1.0.
