Panel mount for 740

In order to clean up my instrument panel, I am looking for a mount adapter for my 740. Does anone know of one besides the Airgizmo?

You might find a Ram mount that would work. Of course, it probably wouldn't be in-panel, but mount to the panel. I know they sell great products.

This my panel. Just to show you how the 740 looks in the vertical mount position in the Airgizmo dock. Works real well. I hope the picture comes thru as I do not see it in the preview.

Thanks for the pic, Flybaby. The Airgizmo does what I am looking for, but it seems to take up a lot of panel space. I may end up machining one from Delrin or another plastic to get what I need.

Re: Panel mount for 740

I mounted a portion of a ram mount to my panel to which the iFly will click into. The problem is their design has the antenna plug coming straight out of the back, so a large slot needs to be cut into the panel. The unit covers the slot but their design is not elegant at all. I also had to find right angled plugs for the power and adsb-in cables.
