ejthe4th is on a distinguished road
the way the program could skip a loop is if, for some reason, the rc doesn't send a response soon enough (26 milliseconds) then it'll restart w/ the serin command and the program stores the number of skipped loops into delta_t (resets back to 0 every time the program is fully looped through) (i think of delta_t as delta meaning change or difference in and t as time, or the difference of time since last loop went through)
