Output percentages to each of the four motors and grabber
4 uint8_t values
Confirmed
Grabber positions for debugging
Boolean?
Ideal world: Position of grabber given through potentiometer, percentage of how open it is through callibration (uint8_t) (assume, and if its limit switch than add 0 or 1)
Secondary - Limit Switch (boolean)
Current Aircraft Attitude
...
Would state if the drone is Armed, disarmed, or in Failsafe mode
Strings (char*)
3 uint4_t values
One for arm/disarm state
One for manual/autonomous/failsafe
One for Landing/Takeoff/Hover/Other PM states

Some method to visualize controls data? It would be nice to be able to see visually in each controls axis how our drone is responding to changes in inputs. In essence, we want to be able to identify and adjust any oscillations in our PID’s in real time. In the simplest way, it would be ideal if we could get graphs that allow us to visually identify states of our PID, something like this: |

 As long as we can get graphs like this for each target input (x, y, z, heading), that would be amazing. We shouldn’t need to see all of them at once, being able to switch to one or the other is nice. At some point, it would be cool if we could view the drone, the target, and the path that it is aiming for in some 3d space (once controls gets more complicated). This would include the following data being transmitted to ground:

Spare Channels
Ideally keep 1-2 spare channels for data we plan on developing in the coming term
