Parsing PPM data from CAN Bus

I believe I am getting a VESC response now with PPM information, though I am having trouble understanding the output format. My short Arduino code is below.

My primary question is, have I gone about this correctly to read the PPM info, is the output as expected, and can anyone advise of the parsing format or where I can dig to find it?

CAN_device_t CAN_cfg;               // CAN Config
unsigned long previousMillis = 0;   // will store last time a CAN Message was send
const int interval = 500;          // interval at which send CAN Messages (milliseconds)
const int rx_queue_size = 10;       // Receive Queue size
uint8_t vesc_id = 0;
uint16_t CAN_PACKET_PROCESS_SHORT_BUFFER = 8;   //From CanBus.H header typedef enum list kicks out --> CAN_PACKET_ID;
