Best mounting of an iPhone or iPad mini

Post by Ebby »

To All,

I've been trying to use my iPhone X mounted at the front of the cockpit opening. It's just too close to see clearly and vibrates ever so slightly. If any of the membership are using an iPad in their Hatz what are you using to mount it and where are you mounting it? I'd really rather not cover the panel or do a remake of the panel.

I don't do iStuff, but I have a bicycle handlebar mount for my phone clamped to the fuselage diagonal tube below and slightly aft of the panel. My larger tablet I put on a kneeboard when necessary (only for XCs).

Sounds like a good plan. I’ll bring my gear and check it out. Thanks
