Hello,
I am trying to upload my controller which includes some optimization code to pixhawk cube orange, But below error occurs.

As you can see, flash and ram is overflowed, and I cannot upload it.

I know I have to delete some useless module in CMake File, but I am not sure in which file I should modificate exactly.
Also, as you can see SRAM is very highly overflowed, i am not sure I can solve the problem by deleting modules. Is there any method I can do to solve overflow issue except for deleting modules?
Thank you!

Yeah for the flash issue, you can consider removing modules. For example, if you are working with a multi-copter, you can consider removing fixed-wing controllers and related modules. But I don't think that's going to solve the RAM issue. Since it overflowed highly, I believe you need to review the signals and data used inside your controller module. For example, if you are using large look-up tables that can cause RAM issues. To debug, you can selectively disable different blocks or modules and see how that is impacting the RAM. This should give you an idea of which part of your modeling is causing the issue.

You can edit the <PX4 Dir>\Firmware\boards\cubepilot\cubeorange\default.cmake' file. If you are focusing on quadcopter you can remove fixed wing modules 'fw_att_control ' and 'fw_pos_control_l1' by commenting out those lines.
