const server = require('http').createServer(app);
const io = require('socket.io')(server);
// Initialize SKYDROID T12 remote control
const remoteControl = require('skydroid-t12');
// Handle client connections
io.on('connection', (socket) => {
  console.log('Client connected');
// Handle joystick input from client
  socket.on('joystickInput', (data) => {
    const xValue = data.x;
    const yValue = data.y;
// Send channel values to remote control
    remoteControl.setChannel(1, xValue);
    remoteControl.setChannel(2, yValue);
  });
});
// Serve HTML file for client interface
app.get('/', (req, res) => {
  res.sendFile(__dirname + '/index.html');
