Description
APWeb seems to be using a system-id = 67 and component-id = 72 when sending [REQUEST_DATA_STREAM](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/common.html#REQUEST_DATA_STREAM) messages.
I think it would be better to use a system-id of 1 to match the default used by most vehicles and component-id of perhaps 242 (one higher than MAV_COMP_ID_UART_BRIDGE).
The defaults used now are strangely exactly the same system-id and component-id as used by the [SToRM32 mavlink enabled gimbal](http://ardupilot.org/copter/docs/common-storm32-gimbal.html).

Research direction
Start by locating where APWeb constructs and sends REQUEST_DATA_STREAM messages, then inspect the defaults used for the system and component IDs. The work is done when those defaults are 1 and 242 and the existing behavior is verified without the SToRM32 ID conflict.
