I flew my MM a few hours and realized the folding side clamp bars that hold your phone are worthless. Especially if you have a case around your phone.
And no, I'm not taking the phone cover off every time I want to connect to the RC.
I did a little Google shopping and found all sorts of large tablet mounts, and for larger phone mounts, etc. Both styles are too large for my little Samsung Galaxy 7...and some reviews weren't that great.
So, I decided to make my own holder out of some leftover, lightweight Kydex and bought some RAM mounts. Great adjustment flexibility on the ball pivot and X clamp for various phone sizes. I've used RAM products in my vehicles and was the first thing I thought of for this mount. It is interchangeable with their vehicle mounts as well. Not the most cost effective modification, but functional.
It works great. I notched the Kydex to fit into the side bar clamp openings. Rubber bands aren't needed, but work well to hold the extended RC to phone cable, plus adds a little more compression to the mount.
