mangavalkandClaude Opus 5.5 91dac16fca Draft: shared protocol, remote firmware, project docs
Not yet verified on hardware.

- shared/HexapodProtocol: CmdPacket (now 20 bytes, adds remote_roll /
  remote_pitch), FLAG_* bits and radio settings as the single protocol
  definition; static payload size = sizeof(CmdPacket) on both radios.
- robot: use the shared protocol; vx = forward (harness w/x <-> q/e);
  InputMapper adds remote tilt on top of the right stick when
  FLAG_REMOTE_GYRO is set, and robot.ino no longer zeroes stick
  roll/pitch when it's off.
- remote (Teensy 4.1): Sticks (calibration, EEPROM), RemoteIMU,
  RemoteState (interlocks, link-loss disarm, smoothing), PacketBuilder,
  RadioLink, NextionUI, SerialConsole.
- CLAUDE.md, README.md, remote/README.md, remote/NEXTION.md.

Hexapod

A six-legged walking robot (Teensy 4.0) and its handheld remote (Teensy 4.1 + Nextion touchscreen), linked over nRF24L01.

robot/    robot firmware: IK, gait, body pose, IMU stabilization, state machine
remote/   remote firmware: 2 x 3-axis sticks, MPU6050 tilt, Nextion UI, RF24 TX
shared/   HexapodProtocol: the CmdPacket wire format + radio settings used by both
scripts/  PlatformIO helper (per-environment sketch folder)

Build (PlatformIO)

pio run                    # build both
pio run -e robot -t upload
pio run -e remote -t upload
