Ideas about a pinout board for the max32

I am building a rather large robot, and part of that requires me to make a pcb so that i can plug the max32 and integrate a rc receiver(6 ch), a opto-isolator, a external 5v regulator(to power the max32 and other five 5v parts.). I would like to know what pins would be the best to include. I only need a few pins and one tx line. My other question is should I include a capacitor on the 5v rail to to help prevent any spikes or noise. this board directly connects to my motor driver pcb via the opto-isolator with serial ttl.

Two thoughts...

If you only need a few pins, make the shield work with the Uno32, since a Uno32 Shield should work on a Max32 as well.

Also, I don't if it would be helpful, but the PONTECH UAV100 board can take servo inputs... (disclosure, I profit if you buy one).
