S00000000F
Where a 0 => set the point to straight and a 1 => set the point to turn.
The software runs a really nice little state machine to ensure robust communications. I may want to put an ACK on the serial line potentially (taking it to 2 lines to control the system.
You can see the setup in this video:
The code is below (needs comments!).
