The Candela C-8 has several on-board computers and systems that control all aspects of the boat. The software is updated regularly "over the air" to add features, improve performance and fix issues. Below you will find information about the software packages and the latest improvements.
Please make sure to always keep your boat up to date with the latest software to ensure the best performance and safety.
When there are new updates available for your boat you will be notified and can chose when to apply the update using the user interface in the boat.
Make sure the boat is turned on, not in use, and has a stable internet connection. Software updates will take a few minutes to complete. Do not turn the boat off during the update.
The Candela C-8 User Interface is updated regularly with new features and improvements.
This is a fairly minor update with only a few changes:
The FCU controls the hydrofoils to keep the boat foiling in a stable and efficient manner.
The DCU controls the electric motors and the battery system.
Height Sensor software controls the sensors that determine the height above the water.
The Candela Boats mobile app for iOS and Android is your companion in managing your Candela C-8.
This release improves trip history loading and overall app performance.
