Is the aim to use UART hardware?

Yes, it would be really handy to have that as an option for testing. Maybe even a replacement for dshot/oneshot on certain rigs.

Are there any opinions on a format currently? Something following an existing protocol? Plain text for the arduino crowd?

For now there is the basic CLI similar to betaflight world be nice to use (acsii) for testing. I put a couple functions in there and a motor test would be great as well. Maybe command to 0 to 100 throttle or tell it to go to a set RPM etc...

A compact binary serial protocol would be down the road if it was to be a dshot/multishot replacement. That was just an idea I'd like to test out at some point to see if it would be fast enough.
