I'm using MAVLink on a dsPIC33f and the compiler for it doesn't support arrays larger than 32767 bytes. Is there a reason that MAX_EXTENDED_PACKET_LEN needs to be so large or could it be reduced?

If it's a problem to reduce the size of the extended message, can it be part of the message definition file to specify a maximum variable size?
