The "midpoint" between crawl and hot where the winch is not turning is defined as 1500, however that's too high and will cause the winch to spin when autostop is not on.

https://github.com/renrut/eWinchLoraRemote/blob/main/src/mainReceiver.cpp#L15

change to

#define MID_POINT 1400

and probably change the mapping logic here and test.

Issue

The logic for the Aux switch does not seem to work and the winch won't spin from throttle as expected when it's being held down. I'm not certain if it's incorrect values being sent or what.

Reproduce

To reproduce, plug in the receiver to the winch, turn on the controller and hold down both buttons pushing forward. Observe that winch doesn't spin.

Issue

The LED flash seems to cause some timeouts. I tried to use a non-blocking library that relies on interrupts, but it doesn't seem to be doing the trick.

Relevant Code Here

Reproduce

Plug in the receiver to the computer and use Serial monitor. Turn on the controller and notice the Timeout:Sending failsafe. lines get printed at the same time as the controller LED blinking.

Fix

Should try to not make the LED flash blocking. A workaround for now is to lower the time of the flashing, but I don't really like that.
