Hey guys I have a I pad yoke mount running fore flight. The last two flights the cockpit got up to 80 degrees and the I pad overheats and shuts down. How do you guys keep an I pad cool?
Its iPad, not 'I pad'.
Also, it needs to be in the shade. Direct sunlight will heat soak the screen and overheat it. If the yoke mount has it in direct sunlight the pull it off and keep in on your lap or knee. There are leg mount straps available..
Is it in a case or skin? They can cause heat retention.
If not, take it back. I've used my IPad for three years now for very long trips, in all weather and temps, and it has never overheated.
