Works great

  • By Scott from Ashland, OR on Monday, August 15, 2016
  • Pros: Sturdy, strong suction cup, versatile clamp will take an iPad mini with case cover
  • Cons: Can't think of any.
  • Review: Well-made and secure. I found that the best place for me in a 172 was to suction cup it on the left window. Perfect, obstructs very little (you just have to peak around it to check the suction). I was initially worried that the vibration you can feel if you touch the window would render the ipad useless, but it didn't affect it at all. Much better than trying to hand-hold the ipad, and I didn't like a kneeboard because it interferes with the yoke for me. I have a Speck case on my iPad mini, and I don't have to take it off--just open it up and clamp it. Used it on its first flight today, about 90 minutes, and it stayed secure.

Easy to use

  • By Dave from Brooklyn Park MN USA on Tuesday, June 11, 2013
  • Pros: Quick mounting of the iPad.
  • Cons: It tilts a little bit due to the spring loaded arms but this is minor
  • Review: This product really fills the bill for ease of use. On the other mounts available snapping the iPad into the mount was a pain and potentially damaging to the unit. The Ramx is really convenient and easy on the iPad,plus you can leave it in about any case you have.

Excellent tablet mount

  • By Jay127 from Alabama on Wednesday, November 16, 2016
  • Pros: Everything
  • Cons: None
  • Review: What can I say? This is a superb mount for any 7 inch tablet. I'll be honest I was a bit skeptical about how well this mount would actually hold a tablet due to the way it is designed but I have been pleasantly surprised. This is a very sturdy mount and it will hold a tablet very secure. Although this is made for a 7 inch tablet; it will accommodate tablets with a case. I have a fairly thick case on mine and this mount has no problem fitting it. In fact, it is capable of opening quiet a bit more than actually needed so you won't have to remove a protective case if you have one. I highly recommend this mount. The best part is that it is not brand specific so if you have several tablets your not stuck with a mount that you can't use with the others. Definitely money well spent.

Excelent product

  • By 4ES pilot from Round Pond ME USA on Tuesday, January 21, 2014
  • Pros: Great mount that works and is solid
  • Cons: None
  • Review: Works as advertised as all Ram mounts I have used performed well. It really grips my iPad Mini and the suction cup on Ram mounts have a great solid feel and grip. There is a bit of play slightly back and forth (left and right) when the iPad is being gripped by the arms of the mount. But, honestly, it is a non factor. The "play" is approximately 10 degrees right and left but it never negatively affects the readability of the iPad nor is it an annoyance. A plane out of trim is annoying, this is not annoying, at least to me.

Does the job

  • By Frank from Walla Walla WA USA on Monday, August 18, 2014
  • Pros: Installation
  • Cons:
  • Review: It easily secures my iPad mini in a variety of position for easy viewing. Due to my bow tie yokes, the mini is a little higher than I would like. Also there is a little rotational play. Device is simple to install to the metal bar behind the yoke. The table is quickly installed on the mount system. I am satisfied with my purchase.

  • Review: I'm very happy with the suction cup mount. After 3 flights with it, I am still trying to find the perfect place to attach it so I can see the screen and not hit the tablet with the control wheel.

Second time I've purchased this item

  • By Bill from Palmetto FL USA on Monday, February 05, 2018
  • Pros: Great stability for the tablets. No complaints.
  • Cons: Needs a shock absorber when in turbulence. Hard to work tablet then. :)
  • Review: I purchased the first mount back in September of 2017. Since then I've upgraded my tablet. I purchased this second mount and it's now on the co-pilot yoke with my older tablet. Works great.

Works as advertised

  • By Gerald from Ocala FL USA on Wednesday, March 23, 2016
  • Pros: Fits great on the yoke tube. Fits a variety of tablets.
  • Cons: None really. Could be a little steadier if it were a dedicated unit, but not bad at all
  • Review: Attaches to the yoke tube just fine.
    Actually holds my iPad nice and secure.
    It is a universal mount that holds a variety of tablets. It could only be better if it were a dedicated mini iPad mount.

Not universal to all yokes

  • By Tim from Tacoma WA USA on Thursday, January 26, 2017
  • Pros: Tight hold on the ipad
  • Cons: Buying something without knowing if it will work on your year model
  • Review: So I purchased this product for a Cessna 172. What I will say is it looks good. It holds the iPad well. But it doesn't fit on my Cessna. If it came with a longer extension joint then maybe. It fits nicely on the back of the yoke, but because my yoke is a little older, it doesn't clear it on the top. I have tried attaching in many different ways. Beware not all yokes are made the same. I have looked at extensions to get this to work but no such luck.
