@felixge so cool!! :D

I continued a bit, haven't tested this on the drone D:

#!/bin/bash
seq=1
exec 3<>/dev/udp/192.168.1.1/5556
echo -e "AT*REF=$seq,512\r" >&3

while [ true ]
do
sleep 0.033;
seq=$((seq+1))
echo -e "AT*REF=$seq,512\r" >&3
seq=$((seq+1))
# TODO: map axes into float signed int32s
echo -e "AT*PCMD=$seq,0,0,0,0,0\r" >&3
# TODO: code script break
done;

seq=$((seq+1))
echo -e "AT*REF=$seq,0\r" >&3
