About FlyFocus
CableGuard is a tethered multirotor supplied with continuous power from a ground station through a cable extending to approximately 100 metres. The aircraft can carry electro-optical and other surveillance payloads for persistent observation, while a detachable tether and onboard battery allow up to 30 minutes of independent flight.
FlyFocus also develops free-flying UAVs, communications equipment and custom mission integrations for military, law-enforcement and industrial users. Its engineering work spans aircraft design, payload selection, ground systems and customer-specific development, with the Indian partnership adding licensed local manufacture and supply.
