I’ve tried several different iPad mounting setups over the years, and the A35 Pivot Case by Flyboys is the one I’ve finally settled on. It strikes the perfect balance between security, convenience, and flexibility.
What sets it apart is the Pivot ecosystem. Whether I’m using a yoke mount, suction mount, or leg strap, I can quickly move my iPad between configurations without changing cases or dealing with complicated hardware. That flexibility is a huge advantage depending on the aircraft, mission, or cockpit layout.
The case itself is rugged without being bulky, protects the iPad well, and keeps access to buttons, charging ports, and the Apple Pencil simple. In my Cessna 210, it stays secure, doesn’t interfere with flight controls, and keeps ForeFlight exactly where I need it.
After experimenting with several competing products, this is the setup that feels the most refined and pilot-focused. Flyboys has really dialed in the design, and the ability to adapt to different mounting options makes it an easy recommendation for any pilot looking to improve cockpit organization and efficiency.
Five stars. Highly recommended.
