MADBrain Modes Super-pilot

The MADBrain Modes Super-pilote software pack is a software upgrade designed for the MADBrain autopilot system. It unlocks all Elite Performance Pack functions, providing advanced piloting capabilities inspired by offshore racing.

The MADBrain Modes Super-pilote software pack transforms your boat's capabilities by enabling the autopilot to anticipate and actively steer for maximum speed rather than simply maintaining a heading. It uses artificial intelligence algorithms and ultra-precise data acquisition for unmatched heading stability and remarkable responsiveness, even in extreme conditions.

The MADBrain's Super-pilot modes use cutting-edge artificial intelligence algorithms and ultra-precise data acquisition from the MADBrain processor. This technology enables ultra-fine true wind calculation (up to 50 Hz) and advanced boat attitude analysis thanks to a proprietary high-precision inertial measurement unit, allowing unique trajectory anticipation.

Yes, the MADBrain, with its Super-pilot modes, ensures unmatched heading stability. It processes real-time data with high precision and reacts instantly to wind shifts, waves, or boat behavior changes, applying subtle corrections that prevent overreaction and ensure smooth, precise course-keeping.

Yes, thanks to its optimized control and extreme precision in rudder adjustments, the MADBrain places less strain on the steering system. Every movement is optimized for stability and effortless control, resulting in reduced energy consumption from the actuator—particularly beneficial on long passages.

The MADBrain, with its Super-pilot modes, is designed to deliver uncompromising steering reliability, even in the most extreme conditions. It actively adapts to wind and boat dynamics, ensuring smooth, balanced, and reassuring steering. It senses the boat's behavior and reacts in harmony with the elements, providing more comfortable and stable navigation in gusts or rough seas.

The MADBrain no longer just reacts: it anticipates. Inspired by the techniques of top offshore racing skippers, it acts like an experienced crew member, sensing your boat's behavior and adapting to your sailing style. This anticipatory capability is a key feature of the Super-pilot modes.

No, the MADBrain Modes Super-pilote software pack does not require any additional subscription after purchase. It is a one-time purchase that permanently unlocks all features.

Yes, the MADBrain is designed for continuous evolution. The software can receive ongoing updates to improve performance and add new features over time.

The MADBrain Modes Super-pilote stems from over 10 years of experience and victories in offshore racing. The technology has been tested by top skippers on demanding circuits such as IMOCA, Ocean Fifty, Ultim, Class40, and Mini 6.50, ensuring a reliable and high-performance solution.

Yes, although originally developed for offshore racing, MADBrain technology is accessible to all sailors and widely adopted across a wide range of boats, including cruising catamarans, IRC monohulls, and superyachts. It is aimed at demanding sailors seeking to maximize the performance of their sailboat.

The MADBrain Modes Super-pilote software pack is performance-focused. The MADBrain system, on which it is based, includes high-level safety functions. For a specific heel control safety function, the "Heel Security Pack" is available separately and complements the autopilot's capabilities.

The MADBrain system, essential for this software’s operation, performs ultra-fine true wind calculations. This capability stems from the America’s Cup and the Vendée Globe, with high-frequency data acquisition reaching up to 50 Hz. This enables highly precise wind data analysis for optimal autopilot performance.

Yes, the "Smart Speed" function is one of the features of the Superpilot modes. It contributes to optimizing speeds and trajectories, allowing the autopilot to actively seek the maximum speed of your sailboat.

The MADBrain Modes Super-pilote software package is designed to work with the MADBrain navigation processor. It is software that enhances the capabilities of an existing MADBrain system, not a standalone system.

Yes, the MADBrain system, on which this software pack is installed, offers native integration with the NMEA 2000 network. This allows for a plug & play installation via the CAN bus and extended compatibility with other equipment.

Yes, the MADBrain system is compatible with standard sensors and displays on the market. It uses data from these devices, such as GPS, compasses, multifunction displays, and speed/depth transducers, to feed its autopilot algorithms, including those for Super-pilot modes.

Yes, the MADBrain system is designed to be compatible with major brands on the market via the NMEA 2000 network. This includes equipment from brands such as B&G (ZG100, Precision 9, Zeus), Garmin (24XD, SteadyCast, GPSMAP/TD50) and Raymarine (EV-1, Axiom), as well as Airmar sensors.

The MADBrain Modes Super-pilote pack is a software. Installation is done as an update or activation on an existing MADBrain navigation processor. Integration requires no additional complexity and the system is designed to be easy to use via the MADLight application.
