I have the G Force mount (didn't know there was another kind!). Works
great in the Cub, which proved very unfriendly to the 296 (too big and
too heavy for my other lashups, and there was just no way to tertivate
the yoke mount).

Though the plexiglass in a Cub is very flimsy, I mount the GPS on the
port window, low down and forward, and it is stable there. I don't
ordinarily carry a passenger so I've never tested out whether this
would get in the way of the pax's left shoulder. (That's about where
it is, in line fore and aft with the top of the front pax seat.)

When I first opened the box, it didn't seem to me that the G Force
swiveled sufficiently. But in practice it will move
anywhere--basically, it's two universal joints, taking up remarkably
little space.



-- all the best, Dan Ford
