Rex is looking into making glare-shield antenna mounts
for the PowerFLARM dipole antenna, especially for
gliders with glare-shields that jettison with the
canopy (Schleicher, LS). The mount will feature:
- mast sticks up above glare-shield
- base mounts underneath glare-shield with velcro
- anti-glare flat-black finish
This arrangement permits safe canopy jettison
and easy canopy removal.
You'll cut a ~ 3-4" round hole in the glare-shield,
afix the velcro, then stick on the antenna so it
is vertical in flight attitude (with coax at
about 45 degrees away from the antenna).
Cost guestimated at $75 including shipping.
Please send Rex an email if you're interested as
he needs to gauge interest; contact info here:

Thanks,
Best Regards, Dave "YO electric"
PS: If you're interested in a mount for a flat-top
glare-shield (SH, etc) - send Rex a note.
