Post a picture of your RC and screen device of choice.

I know you dont need to see the controller but it just makes me feel better being able to see it. I dont even know if i look at it lol.
 
I’ve got the same Lifthor, balance is perfect, it’s very light too.
Although I can use it hand held without a lanyard, the lanyard attachment eyelet is dead balanced too.
I’m on the lookout for a good strong adjustable lanyard now, so I can multi task with normal hand held camera too if I want at times.

I started out with an iPhone 6 but it s way too small.
Bought an iPad Air2 with cell to get the gps function and a much better visibility. Added a foldable sunshade.

The first holder I bought is a good plastic holder (with red foam cushions) from Skyreat to be able to look at the controller screen at the same time as the iPad screen but I quickly found out it is not as portable as I would have wanted and I could not get a comfy screen position.

Bought another one. This time the aluminum version, also from Skyreat.

It is very flat and easy to assemble. The iPad sits on top of the controller but I have learnt I do not have to look at the controller screen and the buttons when flying the drone.
The iPad rests lightly on my arms and the distance between the controller and the iPad is perfect.
The holder has a hole to attach a lanyard but so far I use it without.

For me, this is the perfect setup. It is comfy, has a good balance and the large 9,7” screen is totaly visible in full sunshine with the sunshade mounted.

Never see this one ! Can you move just the screen or you have to move the whole thing ?
 
Can you post a pic of behind the mount pls ?

I'm finalizing the design, should be up on Thingiverse in the next couple of days.
