Before proper use of section switches:
lockheed:certyflie simon$ arm-eabi-size cflie.elf--
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
 522972	   4104	  42160	 569236	  8af94	cflie.elf--

After:
lockheed:certyflie simon$ arm-eabi-size cflie.elf
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
 289912	   3568	  42144	 335624	  51f08	cflie.elf

I was wondering why it was so big, but there were worse problems!
