Aerodon Posted February 24 Report Posted February 24 After a few iterations I think I have perfected a flush mount system for a Garmin Aera 760. Gizmo's make a nice panel dock - the problem with a M20J/K is that the RHS stack is very tight and it's difficult to fit a 6.25" wide item in. The 760 is 7.4x4.9" and fits really nicely on the co-pilots side. I used a standard 760 cradle mounted on a plate set back from the panel. There is a lever to pop the 760 out of the panel (lanyard to follow). No power button, but the 760 comes on and turns off when power is removed. I have enough glass and gadgets on the pilot's side, this is for my co-pilot to watch traffic etc. And I had to fill the space with something. Let me know if I can make one for you.... Aerodon 1
Utah20Gflyer Posted February 24 Report Posted February 24 Looks really nice! I cheaped out and did a I phone max surface mounted with magnets. It’s really nice having another moving map gps, checklist, traffic or approach chart available at all times. Also the redundancy is great. My I pad mini froze up and then had to be rebooted a couple flights ago. It’s nice to have multiple sources of information.
Pinecone Posted February 25 Report Posted February 25 I went the other way and put a 7" G3X screen on that side. @hubcap did even better, he put in a 10" G3X on the right side.
