1.1.1

OpenShock Firmware 1.1.1

This release increases the stability and performance of the firmware, as well as fixes some minor bugs.

Highlight

• Enabled release builds for improved firmware size, performance, and stability.

Minor Updates

• Improved RFTransmitter delay logic to wait patiently for commands if it has no transmissions to send.
