Description

Just so people don't get confused about #3562: that one is not about supporting or not supporting the .px4 file format to upload Linux binaries. This issue is here in order to allow that, so it's easy to deploy new versions of the flight stack from GCS.

Research direction

The issue names .apj files, Linux boards, Linux binaries, and GCS, but no files, tests, or entry points. First trace how GCS deploys flight-stack binaries to Linux boards and identify the existing upload-format handling; done means a new .apj file can be deployed from GCS.
