 time_usec | `uint64_t` | us | | Timestamp (UNIX Epoch time or time since system boot). The receiving end can infer timestamp format (since 1.1.1970 or since system boot) by checking for the magnitude the number. 
 counter | `uint16_t` | | | Counter of data packets received. 
 count | `uint8_t` | | | Total number of ESCs in all messages of this type. Message fields with an index higher than this should be ignored because they contain invalid data.
