Overview

smartPanel Mount Series for new Apple iPad mini 6.

Now Approved for Installation in Certified Aircraft and Rotorcraft!

The smartPanel Mount for Apple iPad Mini is a new flush mounting system to easily dock and seamlessly integrate your existing iPad Mini into your aircraft instrument panel -- giving it a clean, professional appearance in an easy to view position! Once installed, the smartPanel mount allows your iPad to be docked in seconds, fully connected to power and audio with built-in cable ports. Removal is just as easy -- just slide, push, and remove!

Compatible with all models of iPad mini 6, the smartPanel Mount allows you to transform your new or existing panel and use the most popular iPad for aviation in the cockpit, fully integrated with your instrument panel. Your charts and approach plates are in easy sight for reference and you can even use your iPad Mini as a small multi-function display with the many popular iOS aviation apps available.

Now Approved for FAA Certified Part 23 Aircraft and Part 27 and 29 Rotorcraft
All smartPanel Mounts from Guardian Avionics are approved for installation in certified aircraft and rotorcraft under 14 CFR Part 23, 27 and 29 as "Non-Required Safety Enhancing Equipment" (NORSEE) as outlined in FAA memorandum number PS-AIR-21.8-1602. Mounts and power supplies may be installed as a minor alteration. Please refer to this link for the Guardian Avionics NORSEE Letter of Authorization.

Keep it cool.
As they are being used, iPads generate heat that can affect performance -- resulting in a high-temperature shut down when you might need it most! Pilots have found this out the hard way when using a temporary mounting solution like Velcro to attach their unit to the instrument panel. The smartPanel Mount was designed with cooling in mind. Each mount has a 5/8" tapered hose / tube port built-in, allowing you to attach it to a standard avionics cooling fan. Each panel mounting tray features cooling channels to circulate air behind your iPad to keep it cool even under the heaviest of use.

Simple installation.
The smartPanel Mount is designed for easy installation in your panel. Each durable molded ABS plastic unit is self-contained and mounts with only four screws. Our installation drawings give you the exact panel cutout details and screw positions in either PDF or AutoCAD DXF for precise cuts. The smartPanel Mount for iPad Mini requires a 7.834" long and 5.679" high panel cutout and can be mounted either horizontally or vertically.

Mount in Automobiles, Boats, RVs, and Displays too!
Though the smartPanel Mount for iPad Mini was designed for use in aircraft, the durable construction and well-designed flush mount can be used easily for a wide variety of applications -- wherever there is a flat surface!
  • Automobile - - A great custom dashboard mount for custom cars, auto restorations, or to incorporate into your own upgrade design to customize your car or truck. An easy way to add a clean and custom navigation display in any vehicle!
  • Marine / Boats - The thin profile flush mount works well to create a custom bridge display in your boat, yacht, or watercraft for charts, weather, and navigation information. Mount in the wall of your cabin for a space-saving entertainment / communication / information system!
  • Recreational Vehicles (RVs) and Campers - Create a custom mount in the wall of your trailer, RV, or mobile home to have a simple entertainment and communication system while saving space!
  • Displays / Office / Home Use - An easy-to-install custom flush mount to add to trade show displays, retail kiosks, educational exhibits, home entertainment systems, and home management systems.

I purchased one of these mounts and found that it was not manufactured specifically for an iPad mini 6 which is dimensionally different to previous iPad minis. This meant that the required perfect fit within the mount cannot be achieved and the spring loaded retaining system had to be modified to stop the iPad from falling out of the mount in turbulence. The cooling fan is also very noisy.
