UAV Manufacturing
Unique designed UAVs to complement our Avionics
Our UAVs standout feature is its long-term readiness. Currently three different UAVs in development.
Ravenity Avionics
Utilities, Agriculture, Delivery, Government Sciences and More
An autonomous platform that gives companies the ability to use UAVS for a variety of commercial applications such as precision agriculture, package delivery and infrastructure inspection.
UAV Service Providers
UAV Service Providers and Application Developers
Reliable, high-quality and easily extensible software and hardware that can be customizes to the customers needs.
Meeting the Needs of a Growing Industry
The Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) market is in need of more sophisticated and reliable operating software. Software that is easily extensible by developers, meets strict safety critical standards, and reliably provides the capabilities for BVLoS operations.
Avionics and hardware manufacturers want to incorporate the most advanced software and accelerate the demand for their equipment. Many other industries want to use drones for commercial purposes but are slowed down by an inability to extend and adapt existing platforms to their use cases. And safety issues are a major obstacle.
Windhover brings extensibility and reliability together to decrease the time-to-market and mitigate the risks of integrating drones safely into low-altitude airspace.
We can get you where you want to be. Faster.
Let us help you get there.

Ravenity
Avionics Computer
Windhover Labs developed the Ravenity UAV flight system, a high performance and high reliability flight computer for the safe operation of autonomous UAVs. Ravenity builds on technology from the space and commercial aircraft industries for maximum reliability and a path to FAA certification.
Dragonfly-Blue
UAV
Dragonfly is family of long range UAVs with modular payload, designed to make maximum use of the capabilities provided by the Ravenity avionics system.
Dragonfly-Blue is the commercial variant. It launches vertically directly from the 1’x1’x5’ launch tube and lands vertically, making it easy to transport and possible to operate in austere conditions without a runway. Ravenity provides augmented flight modes which simplifies flight and requires very little training.
Dragonfly-Black
UAV
Dragonfly Black is the military version currently in design. The avionics is identical but the smaller design fits into the US Air Force Common Launch Tube (CLT), allowing for air drop delivery. The flight software makes use of Ravenity hardware accelerated AI to provide real time target identification, classification, and tracking.
Eterna
Long Range UAV
Eterna is a high altitude UAV, covered in solar panels for indefinite flight. Ravenity avionics can even be reconfigured and reloaded in-flight providing maximum flexibility.
Our Experienced Team
We are passionate about the commercial potential of unmanned aircraft to transform the way we live, work, and play.
We are software developers and flight systems engineers with multiple decades of aerospace experience. We are driven to produce high-performance UAV software that is easy to implement, test, deploy, and operate.
