Description

It would be nice to have a handler in modules for packets that get send to the UAV. This is e.g. useful if you would like to write a logging module that logs all MAVLink messages that flow through the system.

Research direction

Start by tracing how MAVLink packets sent to the UAV flow through MAVProxy modules and identify the module dispatch entry point. Done means modules can receive every outbound packet through a handler, allowing a logging module to observe and record all MAVLink messages sent through the system.
