Hi,

Have you tried the RAM-B-224 suction cup mounts that I sell? They work
great for me and I've sold hundreds of them to glider pilots around the
world. If you clean the canopy and wet the suction cup it should never fall
off. I use mine to hold an iPAQ hx4700 with large battery and CF GPS with
no problems. It has withstood the 4Gs of a loop and the bumps of a landing
on a grass runway in a Ventus with no shock absorber and the tire pumped up
to a high pressure - very bumpy.

It should hold your large Garmin fine as well.

If you have tried that suction cup without success then you may have
received a defective one that could be replaced free of charge.

You can see details he

Is there any trick how to prevent suction mount with a relative heavy gps
device on it (G96) to fall off the canopy every half an hour or so?!
The canopy is new, surface is perfectly clean, almost flat (blanik's
canopy starboard side), tried two diferent suction mounts, one with light
PDA device mounted but the result is the same - it is always falling off
the canopy!
