yoke mounted I pad
« on: March 12, 2018, 02:28:01 pm »
Has any one discovered a size of I Pad that is small enough to not block the instruments, but big enough to see Nav info/approach plates. If so what mount. Thanks

I velcroed mine to the yoke!  With a plastic case

Worked great!

iPad Air full size.  The only time you can’t see all the gauges is when on the ground.

I find it's not just the size of the iPad, but the size of the mounting solution. I use an iPad mini with no case and the RAM EZ-roller mount. It's as small as you can get.

Hi There,

I posted in the Turbine section.  I bought a mounting bracket from Sporty's for a BeachCraft.  Then I got a slightly larger hose clamp at the hardware store.  I use the iPad mini, and the Sporty's mount for the iPad mini.
