+# MC8RE V2 (A7105)
+
+This protocol supports the MC8RE V2 receiver family using an A7105 RF chip.
+It was reconstructed from a wired A7105 SPI capture of the original
+transmitter and then verified on two MC8RE V2 receivers.
+
+## Implemented behaviour
+
+- bind sequence: six packets on A7105 ID `5475C52A`, channel
+  `01`, then normal operation on ID `51D567EB`;
+- 16-channel hopping and the original startup/RX slot timing captured from
+  the transmitter;
+- eight 11-bit packed output channels, with EdgeTX +/-100% mapped to
+  1000/1500/2000 us;
+- telemetry A1 (receiver/BEC voltage) and A2 (external battery voltage,
+  0.1 V per count; set EdgeTX A2 ratio to 25.5 V for a 4S range);
+- a relative local A7105 RSSI indication.  It is not a calibrated received
+  signal-strength measurement supplied by the receiver.
+
+## Known limitation
+
+The normal link ID and hopping sequence are intentionally fixed to the
+capture-proven transmitter identity `51D567EB`.  Another original
+transmitter has been observed to use a different ID and hopping sequence.
+Deriving only the low 24 bits from the EdgeTX receiver number bound briefly
+but did not maintain control, so it is deliberately not exposed as an option.
+This is why this change is suitable for a **Draft PR / request for more
+captures**, rather than a claim of universal MC8RE compatibility.
+
+## Reproduction evidence
+
+The contributor can provide the original Saleae `.sal` wired capture on
+request.  Its SPI settings are CPOL=0, CPHA=0, MSB first; A7105 CS, SCK,
+MOSI and MISO were captured.  No receiver serial output or third-party RF
+packet decoder was used to infer the normal-channel format.
