I’m working on a project to adapt the **PX4-Autopilot** firmware to my custom flight controller hardware, which uses the **STM32H743VIT6** chip. I chose the existing **PX4 FMU-V6C** board as my base and cloned its configuration for my port. However, after adding my customized files to the repository ( [GitHub - mkeyno/pixeagle: Flight controller reference design based on the STM32F765VGT6 microcontroller similar to FMUv5](https://github.com/mkeyno/pixeagle) ), the new hardware target is **failing to compile**. I am getting the following error when attempting to build, Has anyone successfully ported PX4 to this specific microcontroller or encountered a similar compilation issue when cloning a board configuration? **I would be grateful for any advice!** ~/PX4/PX4-Autopilot$ make px4\_pixeagle\_default menuconfig [0/1] Re-running CMake… – PX4\_GIT\_TAG: v1.16.0-rc1-783-g0c8f5ebc32 – PX4 config file: /home/mehrdad/PX4/PX4-Autopilot/boards/px4/pixeagle/default.px4board – PLATFORM nuttx – TOOLCHAIN arm-none-eabi – ARCHITECTURE cortex-m7 – ROMFSROOT px4fmu\_common – CONSTRAINED\_FLASH y – SERIAL\_GPS1 /dev/ttyS2 – SERIAL\_TEL1 /dev/ttyS0 – SERIAL\_TEL2 /dev/ttyS3 – SERIAL\_TEL3 /dev/ttyS1 – SERIAL\_TEL4 /dev/ttyS4 – ROOT\_PATH /fs/microsd – PARAM\_FILE /fs/mtd\_params – PWM\_FREQ 400 – PX4 config: px4\_pixeagle\_default – PX4 platform: nuttx make[2]: \*\*\* [tools/Unix.mk:267: include/arch/board] Error 1 make[1]: \*\*\* [tools/Unix.mk:606: olddefconfig] Error 2 – cmake build type: MinSizeRel – ccache enabled (export CCACHE\_DISABLE=1 to disable) – NuttX Stack Checking (CONFIG\_ARMV7M\_STACKCHECK) enabled – ROMFS: ROMFS/px4fmu\_common – ROMFS: Adding boards/px4/pixeagle/init/rc.board\_defaults → /etc/init.d/rc.board\_defaults – ROMFS: Adding boards/px4/pixeagle/init/rc.board\_sensors → /etc/init.d/rc.board\_sensors – Configuring done – Generating done – Build files have been written to: /home/mehrdad/PX4/PX4-Autopilot/build/px4\_pixeagle\_default [1/3] Generating ../../../platforms/nuttx/NuttX/nuttx/.config FAILED: ../../platforms/nuttx/NuttX/nuttx/.config cd /home/mehrdad/PX4/PX4-Autopilot/platforms/nuttx/NuttX/nuttx && /usr/bin/cmake -E copy\_if\_different /home/mehrdad/PX4/PX4-Autopilot/build/px4\_pixeagle\_default/NuttX/nuttx/Make.defs /home/mehrdad/PX4/PX4-Autopilot/platforms/nuttx/NuttX/nuttx/Make.defs && cat /home/mehrdad/PX4/PX4-Autopilot/boards/px4/pixeagle/nuttx-config/nsh/defconfig /home/mehrdad/PX4/PX4-Autopilot/build/px4\_pixeagle\_default/NuttX/extra\_config\_options \> /home/mehrdad/PX4/PX4-Autopilot/platforms/nuttx/NuttX/nuttx/.config && /usr/bin/cmake -E copy\_if\_different /home/mehrdad/PX4/PX4-Autopilot/boards/px4/pixeagle/nuttx-config/nsh/defconfig /home/mehrdad/PX4/PX4-Autopilot/platforms/nuttx/NuttX/nuttx/defconfig && /home/mehrdad/PX4/PX4-Autopilot/platforms/nuttx/NuttX/tools/px4\_nuttx\_make\_olddefconfig.sh \> /home/mehrdad/PX4/PX4-Autopilot/build/px4\_pixeagle\_default/NuttX/nuttx\_olddefconfig.log && /usr/bin/cmake -E copy\_if\_different /home/mehrdad/PX4/PX4-Autopilot/platforms/nuttx/NuttX/nuttx/.config /home/mehrdad/PX4/PX4-Autopilot/build/px4\_pixeagle\_default/NuttX/nuttx/.config make[2]: \*\*\* [tools/Unix.mk:267: include/arch/board] Error 1 make[1]: \*\*\* [tools/Unix.mk:606: olddefconfig] Error 2 ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed. make: \*\*\* [Makefile:222: px4\_pixeagle\_default] Error 1 ---

Not really the place for this but this post is approved anyway. The PX4 devs would be a better fit if there are any left! ---

As @Gary_Mortimer said, PX4 forum is more appropriate. ---

I did, but no one has shown any interest to the post, so I was hoping that, could get some help from Cube developers ---

I think there are only a handful of PX4 devs left, it’s a pretty dead project IMHO ---

How so? PX4 based on the H7 series is very active?
