Best kneeboard system for ipad mini on trike

[Unknown Member]

I use a yellow wedge (not sure what to call it), but will post a pic. The angle works good for me. I used the tablet case (with swival so orientation can change) to attach to wedge. There was a thigh velcro strap and i added a waist strap to hold it from sliding and so i could stand up without taking it off if needed. It is generic so any talblet or size will work (I have Samsung 10″, Android). Got it from Aircraft Spruce, I think. Hope this helps.

I made a knee board years ago using a metal clipboard. I also attached a gps to that same clipboard. I attached it to my leg with a very large velcro strap. It worked ok at the time but was a pain having to take it off and put it back on every time i got in and out of my Ultralight. I used it a bit when flying Cessnas but i now use a system where i have everything attached to my trike. I like that a lot better. I use Ram mounts and Ram Clamps. It is adjustable also which i lke. I can take it in and out of my plane if I want to and it takes about 15 seconds to remove and 15 seconds to put back on. The Ipad works great and i use the scratch pad for making notes in the air. Especially when flying into Delta airspace. At the end of each flight i use the scratch pad to write down Hobbs time, duration of flight, Miles of the flight (gps) date and other things i find relevant at the time. I would go back to using a knee pad if I couldn’t figure out any way to attach my ram mounts but I hope to never have to do that again. I found using a very wide (4 inch ) piece of Velcro worked better as a strap to hold to my leg rather than a clip and a strap. it was more stable using the velcro. Let us know what you come up with.
