Peter McCloudThere are now two operating EVPR prototypes. This week I finished assembling the parts for the second rotor. Both are using the new Adafruit Huzzah32 boards.
While both rotors respond to the controller inputs, there is an unacceptable delay in the responses and a jerkiness to the servo movements. The firmware uses TCP to send the servo positions from the master to the slave. I had chosen this method so that the connection status could be monitored. However, using TCP appears to be having side effects that I don't understand. More work is needed on the firmware.

ESP-Now is a point-point protocol that Espressif has developed. It might be lower overhead and therefore lower latency. Worth checking out, anyway.
Are you sure? yes | no
I had been wondering if ESP-Now was worth trying out. I'll give it a shot. Thanks!
