Break code into platform module and remote control module #58

Closed laurb9 closed 7 years ago

The display and controls are not usable while platform is rotating or is out of reach on a tall pole, which I think are common use cases.

Split the code and hardware into

platform module (sensors, motor control, simple status display)
remote control module (buttons, joystick, menus display)

The communication between the two can be serial (wired) or radio. The remote can be replaced by phone eventually. May need two boards otherwise.
