Feature request: Reduce the delay before answering queries
I understand that the RoboClaw waits for 1 ms before answering commands on the serial bus, apparently in order to let slower MCUs without FIFOs or DMA switch into receiving mode.
Given that almost all controllers these days are fast and pipelined, it would be great if that response delay could be turned off. As an example, Robotis servos (that use another serial protocol) have fairly fine-grained control of the amount of delay before responding, between minimum-possible (which ends up being 10 us or so) and half-a-second.

Re: Feature request: Reduce the delay before answering queries
It is an option we are considering adding.
