At the moment, there is only retry logic for the ACK/NAK byte. Corrupt data packets (e.g. wrong checksum, unexpected length, etc) are treated as a fatal error. By reading the entire packet inside the retry loop, all non-fatal errors are automatically taken care off. This change is necessary for the Oceanic VTX. For some unknown reason, the device always responds with an invalid data packet when sending the version command for the first time: W: 84 00 R: 5A 4F ?? 45 41 4E 56 54 58 20 31 42 20 32 30 34 38 E9 There is always one byte missing (marked with question marks), resulting in a timeout. However, when re-sending the command again, we receive a valid data packet: W: 84 00 R: 5A 4F 43 45 41 4E 56 54 58 20 31 42 20 32 30 34 38 E9 This might be a firmware bug, because we're observing the exact same behaviour with the official Oceanlog application.
