Born in Defense, Not Adapted to It
Hoverfly was founded in 2010, developing flight controllers in the early stages of quadcopter technology before moving into tethered drone systems for defense and security operations. Hoverfly Elements brings that experience back to core components, delivering hardware built for modern UAV and UAS systems and scalable production.
The #1 Tethered Drone Supplier for the US Army
Years of developing tethered drone systems for the U.S. Army have shaped how our components are engineered, tested, and deployed. That experience carries forward into hardware built for reliability and consistent performance in real operating environments.
Built to Meet Evolving Compliance Standards
Our components are developed with U.S. sourcing, security, and procurement standards in mind. From NDAA-aligned supply chain requirements to evolving federal compliance expectations, our approach supports long-term availability, operational reliability, and integration into regulated commercial and defense systems.
