This package powers your iPad mount and adds a 2.7A USB-A port directly in your instrument panel — wired from the same power supply. Keep a phone, GPS, or ADS-B receiver charged without running separate wiring. Adding the panel USB port separately costs $249; this package includes it for $50 more than the Mount + Power Supply Package ($449), saving you $199.
Trim bezel available for +$35.
smartPanel Mount Package for Apple Mini 6th Gen / A17 Pro For Both FAA Certified and Experimental Aircraft - Includes Panel Mount, 250-301 2.7 Amp Power Supply to Power Mount Plus Add a Single Panel USB
Port, USB-C Cable.
Full Package Includes:
- smartPanel Mount for iPad Mini
- smartPower 250-101 3.2 amp Power Supply with a Single USB-A Port (Powers Mount and USB Port)
- The smartPanel Mount Package for Apple iPad Mini
is a 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 powered and ready for use, and able to be removed in seconds when done! Also you can connect your headset to the iPad via Bluetooth.
This package gives you the mount along with a panel mounted single 2.7 amp USB-A port that also features a hard-wired 2.7 amp connection from the rear to power the iPad mount! This way you can provide power to an external component like a phone or GPS/ADS-B receiver while keeping your iPad charged! Choose from a Single USB Round Faceplate or Single USB Square Faceplate.
The package also includes the USB-C cable to power the iPad.
If you were to buy all the components in this package on their own, you would spend $576.99 -- at $499, this money-saving package saves you $77.99. Or compare it another way: adding the panel USB port separately after buying the $449 package would cost $698 total — this package includes everything for $499, saving you $199.
Compatible with iPad Mini 6th Gen / A17 Pro, 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.

installation in your panel. Each durable molded ABS plastic unit is self-contained and mounts with only four screws.
