RAM Ball Sizes
I stock 2 sizes are RAM parts. The A size parts use 9/16 inch
(14.3 mm) diameter balls and the B size parts use 1 inch (25.4 mm) balls.
Be careful to select all A or B sized components when you order because A
size balls will not fit in B size arm ends, etc.

See the Cradle Comparison page for details on the
advantages and disadvantages of the cradle options available from Cumulus Soaring, Inc..
More Mount Parts Available
RAM has a huge variety of mounting accessories for many GPSs and PDAs.
While I do have a sizeable inventory of RAM parts, I don't stock all of
them. But I can get any RAM part. Just let me know what you need, and I'll get
it for you.

What Does the "U" in the part number mean?
The "U" at or near the end of the part number stands for "unpackaged". The parts are delivered in a simply plastic bag - rather than in more expensive plastic store display boxes. I stock and sell only the unpackaged (plastic bag packaged) parts because they are less expensive. Note that assembly part numbers do not end in "U", but they do contain parts that are provided in plastic bags rather than store display boxes.

Customer Feedback
"The RAM-HOL-GA14 fits the GPS-96C just fine, and two of the three ports
on the back are available when the GPS is in the mount (the antenna port
and the USB port). However, the serial port (the round Garmin plug) is
covered by the mount. To access it without repeatedly flexing the mount
to remove and reinstall the GPS, one would have to cut a section out of
the back between the lower two mounting holes, right where it says
76C/76CS on the inside face of the mount. Due to the odd orientation of
the plug, the cutaway must be flared to the left as you look at the back
of the mount to accommodate the cable which goes down and to the left as
you look at the back of the GPS."
However, The owner of RAM sent me a response to the statement above, "I
have a GA14 on my boat with the serial cable and it works fine."
They must be using different serial cables... |

RAM-HOL-PD2U |
Cradle,
Universal PDA, Large
Plastic cradle for most any PDA (Pocket PC or Palm), or PNA
(Personal Navigation Device).
Compatible with Compaq Aero 1500 series Pocket PCs, all iPAQs (1900,
2200, 3100, 3600, 3700, 3800, 3900, 5100, 5400, 5500) with any expansion
pack or sleeve, Dell Axim (with or without the optional large battery,
etc. I haven't yet found a PDA that it won't hold. The
spring loaded sliding "3rd finger" extends to accommodate PDAs
and PNAs from
2.875"
(73 mm) to 4" (101.6 mm) wide. It work great with the
hp iPAQ 310, 312, 314, 316 or 318
series of PNAs and the BendixKing AV8OR PNA. It comes with 3 sets of 3
"fingers" so that it can hold devices of different depths.
Weight: 3.4
oz (96 gSlippery Finger Tips?
I have used the PD2 cradle with a variety of PDA in my glider cockpit
for many years. The rubber tips on the fingers hold the PDA very
securely. However, I just received a cradle and was setting it up for a
customer and found that the finger tips were slippery and did not keep
the PDA from sliding. I talked to RAM about it and they said that
sometimes the release agent used during the molding process causes this
problem. They suggested washing the fingers with a mild soap.
That seemed to work great for me. If you receive fingers that
don't seem to hold the PDA securely, try washing them. If that
doesn't work I will replace them. |

Cradle,
Universal, Small Size

The button on the left/bottom of the cradle releases the spring loaded
sides so they can extend to their maximum width. As you squeeze
the sides in they click and hold to clamp onto your device. The
sides are padded with a soft foam rubber which holds on to the device.
Mounting screws are nuts are included which can be used to mount the
cradle to any RAM diamond shaped mounting base such as a RAM-B-238 or
RAM-A-238. It seems to work well with phones but the soft sides
wouldn't hold a PDA very well. It is not wide enough to hold iPAQ
PDAs. It seems to hold a Colibri GPS

Articulated Arms |
| RAM-A-101U |
Articulated Arm, Short,
"A" Size
Articulated Aluminum Arm, Length: 3 1/8 inches (80 mm) from base
plate to base plate, The arm is 1.75 inches (44 mm) from ball center to
ball center, 2 Aluminum base plates with small 9/16" (14mm) balls,
weight: 2.4 oz (68 g), Diamond shaped mounting plates are 1.25" (31.8
mm) x 2.5" (63.5 mm). Mounting hardware not included. This
"A" sized mount is significantly smaller than the large "B" sized mounts
below. The base plates have the same footprint, but the arms are
very different. I recommend this "A" sized mount for
light
applications. The "B" sized mounts are nice when a longer reach
and more rugged arm is
desired (most soaring applications).
Warning!
Most people find that the "A"
sized components work fine for holding a Pocket PC or small FLARM
display in an aircraft or
automobile. However, I have received a significant number of complaints
about the rubber balls detaching from the bases. I therefore recommend the larger "B" sized arms for
most soaring applications. In fact, one customer temporarily lost
control of his sailplane when his PDA cradle fell off the RAM A arm and
jammed the control stick. The issue is caused by clamping the arm
down too tightly on the balls - causing them to deform and separate from
the base.
I have never heard of a RAM "B" size arm component failing. |

Articulated Aluminum Arm, Length: 4 5/8" (12 cm) from base plate to
base plate, The arm is 3.25 inches (83 mm) from ball center to ball
center, 2 Aluminum base plates with small 9/16" (14mm) balls, weight:
3.1 oz (88 g), Diamond shaped mounting plates are 1.25" (31.8 mm) x 2.5"
(63.5 mm). Mounting hardware not included. This "A" sized
mount is significantly smaller than the large "B" sized mounts below.
The base plates have the same footprint, but the arms are very
different. I recommend this "A" sized mount for most applications.
The "B" sized mounts are nice when a longer reach is desired. The
"B" sized components are more stiff than the "A" sized parts. Some
people prefer the "B" sized parts for that reason. Most people
find that the "A" sized components work fine for holding a Pocket PC in an
aircraft or automobile, however, I have received some returns due to the
balls coming off. I therefore recommend the larger "B" sized arms
for most soaring applications. |

RAM-202PSAU |
Rubber Mounting Pad with
VHB Adhesive, 2 7/16" Diameter
This is a thin rubber pad with strong adhesive on both sides.
It can be used to mount a RAM-B-202 or
RAP-273 base. One of these is included with
the RAP-273 base. It could also be cut down
to a diamond shape and used with a RAM-B-238 or
RAM-A-238 diamond base - but the smaller area
of the diamond bases would reduce the holding force when compared with
the round bases. For best results: apply to a clean, dry surface.
Weight: 0.2 oz (6 g)
Warning: The adhesive is very strong - making it difficult to remove. |

Warning!
Most people find that the "A"
sized components work fine for holding a Pocket PC in an aircraft or
automobile. However, I have received a significant number of complaints
about the rubber balls detaching from the bases. I therefore recommend the larger "B" sized arms for
most soaring applications. In fact, one customer temporarily lost
control of his sailplane when his PDA cradle fell off the RAM A arm and
jammed the control stick. I have never heard of a RAM "B" size arm
component failing. |

Ball, Aluminum
Note: This are is very rugged, but it is heavy. For most

expensive and very rugged.
The arm has a socket at either end to allow a 1" diameter ball

enables the sockets to clamp firmly on a 1" diameter ball.
When loosening the side screw, a single spring inside the arm opens the
socket for maneuvering of the mount, or removing of the ball from the
socket. The length of this standard size arm is

Suction Cup Base,
Plastic, Locking
3.25 diameter suction cup base has a rotating locking mechanism that
pulls a strong suction for secure adhesion to the mounting surface.
Compatible with any diamond-shaped mounting plate (RAM-A-238, RAP-B-238,
RAM-B-238, RAP-105-6DD, etc.). This mounting base has a smaller
diameter than the RAM-B-224 rubber suction cup, but it is taller. I
prefer the RAM-B-224 rubber suction cup mount because it is easier to
mount, won't damage your canopy, and is shorter. This mount is nice,
however, if you already have a RAM-A-101 arm and want to temporarily
mount it to a flat surface. Weight: 2.6 oz (74 g)
Note: I prefer the RAM-B-224 rubber
suction cup mount
to this suction cup mount because it is easier to mount, can't damage
your canopy, and is less tall.
Note: The RAP-224-1 suction cup pulls a very strong suction so you
may not want to use it on an expensive glider canopy. If you
decide to use it, I am not responsible for any damage to your canopy.
That said, I have used it on glider canopies safely using a trick.
Before you apply it to the canopy, turn the locking ring halfway through
its rotation. Then press it against the mounting surface and turn
it the remaining distance to lock it in place. If it doesn't mount
securely enough, try only turning the locking ring 1/4 turn before you
apply it to the mounting surface, etc.
Note: If you use suction cups to mount items to a club owned or
syndicate owned glider canopy, please be considerate and clean the
canopy when you are done flying. If we don't do this simple step
it is likely that the club will ban the use of suction cup mounts -
which would be a shame. |

RAP-273U |
Flexible Base with
Pressure Sensitive Adhesive Pad, Plastic
The High Strength Composite Semi-Permanent Adhesive Mount Base
consists of a 2.5" diameter flexible base with a standard RAM double
hole diamond plate end. The base includes a
RAM-202PSA Semi-Permanent Adhesive Disk. The diamond plate end has
two holes 1.912" from center to center. This will connect to the
RAM-B-238 or RAP-B-238
Diamond Plates Series, to the universal industry standard AMPS hole
pattern or directly to the back of the RAM HOL Cradles. This adhesive
base DOES NOT have a RAM 1" rubber connection ball. This could be
used to mount any RAM arm that uses diamond bases to any flat or
slightly curved surface. For example it could be used to mount a
RAM arm to the cockpit sidewall or instrument panel in a sailplane.
For best results: apply to a clean, dry surface. Weight: 1.2 oz
(34 g)Warning: The adhesive is
very strong - making it difficult to remove. |

RAP-B-200-12U |
Double Socket Swivel Arm for 1"
Ball, Plastic - Recommended
Note: I recommend this arm for most applications that require 1" (B
size) balls because it is a medium length, light weight due to its
plastic construction, and inexpensive.
The swivel action is very nice. There are times when a
standard RAP-B-201 arm can't be positioned as desired because the "leg"
attached to the ball can only go to one or the other side of the arm.
This swivel arm has a joint in the center that allows the 2 ends to be
set multiple positions. Don't think that it is not strong because it is made of plastic - it
is very rugged. The arm has a socket at either end to allow a 1" diameter ball
(size "B")
accessories to be connected. A tightening screw on on each end of the arm
enables the sockets to clamp firmly on a 1" diameter ball.
The assembly includes 2 RAP-B-200-1 arms attached to a RAP-280 "double
octagon button". The length of this arm is
3.5 inches (89 mm). The
arm size is measured from center of socket to center of socket.
This part is perfect for use with the RAM-B-224 suction cup base.
It can also be used with two RAP-B-238 base plates (below) to create a
mount arm with a length of 6.125 inches (156 mm) or with two
RAM-B-238 base plates to
create a 5.5 inch (140 mm) mount arm. Weight: 4.7 oz (133 g) |

Note: I recommend this arm for most applications that require 1" (B

Don't think that it is not strong because it is made of plastic - it

When loosening the side screw, a single spring inside the arm opens the
socket for maneuvering of the mount, or removing of the ball from the
socket. The length of this standard size arm is
3 inches (76.2 mm). The
arm size is measured from center of socket to center of socket.
This part is perfect for use with the RAM-B-224 suction cup base.
It can also be used with two RAP-B-238 base plates (below) to create a
mount arm with a length of 5.625 inches (143 mm) or with two
RAM-B-238 base plates to
create a 5 inch (127 mm) mount arm. Weight: 3.4 oz (96 g) |

RAP-B-201U-A |
Double Socket Arm for 1"
Ball, Plastic
The arm has a socket at either end to allow a 1" diameter ball
(size "B") accessories to be connected. It is a bit lighter
than the aluminum RAM-B-201-A and it is very
rugged. A tightening screw on the side of the arm
enables the sockets to clamp firmly on a 1" diameter ball. The length of this
short length arm is 1.75 inch (44 mm). The
arm length is measured from center of socket to center of socket.
This part can be used with two RAP-B-238 base
plates (below) to create a mount arm with a length of 4.375 inches (111
mm) or with two RAM-B-238 base plates to create
a 3.75 inches (95 mm) mount arm. Weight: 2.0 oz (57 g) |

| RAP-B-202U |
Base Plate, Round,
Plastic, with 1" (25.4 mm) "B" Size Ball
2 7/16" (62 mm) diameter plastic base plate. Could be used
with double sided tape to hold a GPS flight recorder such as a Cambridge
302A. I think the RAM-B-202 would work
better though because the bottom of this unit its not completely filled
in (see the photo of the RAP-B-202A below) and may not hold to tape as
well as the RAM-B-202. For that application you would also want a
RAP-B-201 arm and a
RAM-B-224 suction cup (for canopy mounting) or
RAM-B-238 base (for instrument panel or cockpit sidewall mounting). |

RAP-B-202AU |
Base Plate, Round,
Plastic, with 1" (25.4 mm) "B" Size Ball, with Male 1/4''-20 thread
2 7/16" (62 mm) diameter plastic base plate with Male 1/4''-20
thread. This is the similar to a RAP-B-202
with a Male 1/4''-20 thread. The 1/4" thread could be used to hold
a camera or GPS/logger such as a Cambridge GPS-NAV (but not a
Volkslogger which has an M5 thread). For that application you
would also want a RAP-B-201 arm and a
RAM-B-224 suction cup (for canopy mounting) or
RAM-B-238 base (for instrument panel or cockpit
sidewall mounting). |

| RAP-B-231U |
U-Bolt Mount, Plastic,
For mounting a 1 inch "B" size ball to a 3/4" to 1" Diameter Rail
The plastic base has a 1.0 inch diameter Rubber Ball designed to sit
at right angles to the rail. Fits a circular post or handlebar with
diameter from 3/4 to 1 inches. The entire assembly is completely
rust proof. This unit is very light when compared with the
RAM-B-231 but since it is made of plastic it is
obviously not as rugged. I don't think I would trust it to support
my expensive GPS on my bicycle. I fear that the repetitive shocks
would fatigue the unit and cause it to fail. Weight: 0.7 oz (20
grams) |
