A RAM aviation mount is a three-part system, not a single product

Every cockpit setup is built from three pieces that connect through RAM's rubber ball-and-socket joints: a base that grips your aircraft, an arm that sets the length and angle, and a cradle that holds your device. Match the ball sizes and the parts lock together tightly enough to ride out turbulence, yet loosen in seconds to reposition. The most common pilot setup uses the 1-inch B-size ball across all three parts, which is why nearly every cradle, arm, and base in this collection is built around it.

Build your mount in three choices

Part What it does Popular pick
Base Grips the aircraft (yoke, window, glareshield, panel) Yoke Clamp Base
Arm Sets reach and viewing angle Double Socket Arm (Short)
Cradle Holds the phone, tablet, or GPS EZ-Roll'r iPad Cradle

Types of RAM aviation mounts

Tablet and iPad mounts

Turn your cockpit into a virtual glass display with a tablet mount that keeps charts, approach plates, and weather within reach. Choose a model-specific cradle like the EZ-Roll'r for iPad mini for a precise fit, or a universal X-Grip holder for 9 to 11 inch tablets when you fly with a tablet in a case.

Phone mounts

Keep your phone stable and within reach for backup navigation or communication. The spring-loaded X-Grip large phone holder grips most phones with or without a case and handles turbulence without slipping.

GPS, camera, and accessory mounts

The same ball-and-socket system holds aviation GPS units, action cameras, and other gear. A round camera base with a 1/4-inch-20 post mounts a camera, while standard B-size cradles keep portable GPS and ADS-B receivers steady and visible.

How to choose the right RAM mount

Start with where it attaches

Pick a base by the surface you have available. A yoke clamp base mounts to the control yoke, a twist-lock suction base grips a window or glareshield, and a Tough-Claw clamp bites onto a rail or panel edge without tools.

Match the device to the cradle

A model-specific cradle gives the cleanest fit and the easiest one-handed load and unload. A universal X-Grip is the better choice if you swap devices, fly with multiple tablets, or use a heavy-duty case. Confirm your tablet size so you order the matching cradle.

Set the arm length to your panel

A short arm keeps the device tight to the panel and out of the way, while a long arm gives more clearance to angle the screen toward you. Keep ball sizes consistent (B-size to B-size) so every part interchanges.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are RAM mounts compatible with my device?

RAM mounts fit most phones, tablets, iPads, and aviation GPS units through a combination of universal spring-loaded X-Grip holders and model-specific cradles, so you can match almost any device by choosing the correct cradle while keeping the same base and arm.

How do I choose the right RAM mount?

Build the mount in three steps: choose a base by where it attaches in your cockpit, add an arm for the reach and angle you need, then select a cradle sized to your device, keeping every part on the same 1-inch B-size ball so they lock together.

How do I install a RAM mount?

Attach the base to your yoke, window, glareshield, or panel rail, press the arm onto the base ball, then snap the cradle onto the other end of the arm and tighten the center knob, which clamps all the ball joints at once and lets you reposition in seconds.

What ball size do most pilots use?

Most aviation RAM setups use the 1-inch B-size ball across the base, arm, and cradle because it balances strength with a compact footprint and is the size shared by the widest range of cockpit cradles and bases.

Why are RAM mounts good for aviation use?

RAM mounts are built for aviation because the rubber ball-and-socket joints absorb vibration and hold position through turbulence, the parts are lightweight yet strong, and the modular system lets you reconfigure a yoke, suction, or clamp setup without buying a whole new mount.
