I use Avare and or FLTPlan on a 10 inch Samsung Tab S and a Ram mount stuck from the roof. Works well when solo. I put the copilot to work if he doesn't want the tablet in his face!

My flying plane has an Aera 500 mounted with the oem suction cup mount right to the panel.
Greg - I found the best place for my iFly 720 was overhead center on a suction cup mount.

I use an android tablet with I Fly. I found that with so much more info than the old days provided with only a flight path and an airplane icon, a panel mount just wouldn't work for me. I made up a mount with several gimbal joints that clamps to the transverse tube just below the panel - on the pass side. With this mount, it can be positioned so I can read the fine print. In the old days, I used to use Flight Guide for fine print stuff like frequencies and pattern altitudes. It is no longer in print.
I use the Samsung Galaxy 3, 7" tablet as a compromise between size and panel space available. I originally bought an Ipad, but couldnt mount it without covering gages.
I bought the Samsung on ebay, used, for about $140, and use the Garmin pilot app. The 16 gig Samsung holds the entire US chart set easily.
I installed a 12v outlet on the top of the glare shield with a pair of USB charge ports so I run a wire to the Samsung to keep it charged.
The Samsung has integral GPS, and can also have a cell phone tie-in for inflight weather.
I flew across the US in June with this in my Avid Flyer, and it was a charm.
I use a Motorola Xoom with Naviator. Currently it mounts to a Ram ball on the yoke of my Bonanza.
It will be mounted on the right side of my KF V panel. I also mounted a Gizmo for my 496. Primary instrument will be a GRT Mini-AP.
