Yes that is a great thing!

This was the post I was responding to though. The RTCAdapter is a great development for those that already have a DCS remote and they want to use it with the WTIU, but if you are just starting out with DCS you can not get a remote to use with it, you are stuck using your phone or tablet until MTH releases their adapter that will allow you to plug in a DCS remote - but again you need to already have the remote! Since the DCS remote not only sends the command packets but also generates them as needed that is what a DIY remote would also have to do. Unless I'm mistaken, the RTCAdapter just takes the command in from the radio and then resends them out on wifi, it doesn't generates the commands. The RTC windows program that Mark developed does generate the commands and can now even send them to the WTIU through the PC's wifi. Any DIY remote would have to do this as well, which is why I was asking if RTC could be ported from windows to a ESP32. There are already designs out there for wifi controllers, I was just thinking it would be great if we could adapt Mark's great work into one of these designs and make our own WiFi DCS remote!
Since I am not a programmer I asked here if it was feasible, but haven't heard if it is or not yet.
I think my first post was too short and not very clear, sorry for the confusion.
