Description

Joystick RC transmitter control modes are mentioned in the [setup page](https://www.ardusub.com/reference/ardusub/joystick-setup-page.html#general-settings) but not described at all. Would be helpful to document, particularly given Sub tends to have different control axes than normal flying vehicles (thanks to having direct forward and lateral thrust).

User can see which way each joystick axis controls the ROV by the Lateral/Forward/Yaw/Throttle sliders.

Research direction

Start with the linked Joystick Setup Page, especially the General Settings section and its Lateral, Forward, Yaw, and Throttle sliders. Document the RC control modes and explain how joystick axes control an ROV with direct forward and lateral thrust; done means users can understand the available modes and axis behavior from the setup page.
