Could you build this?
No Developing multi-node RF cluster firmware for the ESP32-C5 using raw ESP-NOW requires embedded systems engineering and wireless packet protocol design.
What it would actually take: This project requires embedded C/C++ using the ESP-IDF framework, directly interacting with Espressif's radio hardware registers and 2.4/5GHz RF layers. The hard parts include designing robust distributed consensus or TDMA scheduling over raw, connectionless 802.11 action frames, collision avoidance, and fine-grained power management, requiring specialized embedded systems and RF networking expertise.
