Hello,
I plan to do this winter a real Ipad intégration on the panel because I really don’t like to have my iPad on a cradle just in front of me.
I plan to move the audio panel on the highest place, the gns430 just below, remove my vhs2 (sl40, non-8.33), and let my sqwak at the very bottom, close to the flap switch.
It will allow me to place my iPad pro (10.5) on the panel as an EFIS. The. I will install a usb plug with a short cable and it should be clean and useful.
Did some of you already did this? Do you have recommendation or advices on what I plan to do?
My A&P proposed me to charge 500€ (+usb device) to do that.
Thanks.
Arnaud.

Re: iPad intégration on the panel
I have the similar (vintage) panel that you do, and have my iPad mini attached with the Angerole mount. The mount is screwed to one of the unused 3.25 inch panel cutouts, and is extremely sturdy. It took a little bit of adjusting to get it to not obstruct my view of any of the instruments, but I am quite satisfied with it.

Re: iPad intégration on the panel
And then there are those of us with no real way to mount anything like this to the panel in a reasonable fashion.
