MyGoFlight introduces ‘future proof’ device holder

By General Aviation News Staff · November 20, 2014 ·

DENVER – MyGoFlight has introduced a Universal Cradle device holder that, when combined with MyGoFlight mounts, simplifies and lowers the cost of pilots using EFBs, iPads or tablets in the cockpits of planes, according to company officials.

“Every time you upgrade your iPad, tablet or EFB, it can wreak havoc on your existing mounting system, especially in situations when not all pilots carry the same exact device or use the same case,” said Charles Schneider, CEO of MyGoFlight. “Our new Universal Cradle combined with a MyGoFlight mount is future proof. It will adjust to handle the smallest tablet all the way up to the largest – in or out of a case. This means that as technology changes and the devices used change in size and shape, they will still be able to be secured in one single mount. It also means that retailers and fleet operators can replace dozens of parts with a small few that will accomplish the same with less – less inventory, less complexity, and less confusion.”

The Universal Cradle device holder is machined from aviation grade aluminum. It connects and rotates when paired with any of the mounts by MyGoFlight. The arms of the cradle are adjustable via quick release knobs, making it easy and fast to insert and secure your device, company officials said.

Designed to work with all mounts by MyGoFlight, pilots can connect the Universal Cradle to the FlexMounts, available for yoke, suction, and secure plate mounting; JetMounts for custom fit on many Gulfstream, Boeing, Beech, Lear, Pilatus, TBM and many more aircraft; and various others.
