full size or mini? I have the full cradle for the full size iPad I could let you have for $20 . . I do not have the yoke or similar mount and joint - just the cradle and the ball attached to the back
[the $20 is mostly for shipping, the box and the gas to drive it to the post office!]

I just gave one away that had lived in my garage for the last year to a guy who didn't even need it. I didn't have the heart to sell it, I wouldn't wish one of those on my worst enemy.

I've been a little hesitant on getting one! I have a window suction cup mount that I put off to the side so that It doesn't obstruct my view.
Anyone have pros/cons to the yoke mount? I read an NTSB report of a guy who's flight controls were stuck from the mount... and bit the dust..

The Yoke mount is great.... With the full size you have to mount it sideways to work well. I have had the mini mounted both ways. Having both the mini is much better for aviation use.

Thanks Commancepilot... I already have the cradle and arm... I'm needing the Yoke mount... If anyone is looking to get rid of one, give me a shout.

My PIREP. It's too big for a yoke mount and obstructs your view of the panel and maneuverability of the yoke. In my PA28, the only place I attempted to use it, you have to mount it so that the arm wraps around the yoke from the bottom. It's not very rigid and shakes like a wet dog. It's also too heavy and messes with the feel of your controls. I keep my iPad in my pax seat/hands.
