A controller that can be used to play Pinball Arcade (or any game that supports iCade protocol) on your iPad.

This was designed for an iPad gen 5 so YMMV if you are using a different one. I got measurements from an actual pinball machine for the flipper placement and tried to make it aesthetically look similar with a bar on top etc. The iPad is even held at a 7 degree angle, similar to most modern pins.

In addition to the printed parts, you will need:

1. 3 arcade buttons (I used https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0797T6QL2/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1)
2. An Adafruit "M0" type Microcontroller (I used the Trinket M0 https://www.adafruit.com/product/3500)
3. A Lightning to USB cable. (otherwise known as an OTG cable - I recommend using the OEM camera cable from Apple since the offbrand one I tested with had power issues)
4. A micro USB cable
