Elistair: keep your drone in the air for hours, not minutes
Tethered drone stations and DroneBoxes that power drones from the ground through an ultra-light micro-tether. Persistent overwatch for public safety, event security, industry and defense. Maverick is an authorized Elistair dealer and matches the station, Air Module and drone to your mission.
The brand
The tethered drone company
Elistair builds tethered drone systems that help those who serve and protect make faster and better decisions in critical situations. More than 3,000 Elistair systems are in service with defense, police and first responders in over 70 countries, from Lyon, France and Wilmington, North Carolina.
A tethering station sends power up a micro-tether to an Air Module on the drone, so it can hover for hours with secure data back to the ground. Unclip it and the drone flies free in seconds.
- Tethering stations Ligh-T 4 and Safe-T 2 power your own drone
- Khronos DroneBox fully automated tethered drone for vehicles
- Air Modules for DJI M400, M350, M30, ANAFI UKR and 6S, 8S and 12S drones

Questions
Choosing an Elistair system
Is Maverick an authorized Elistair dealer?
Yes. Maverick is an authorized Elistair dealer, so you buy genuine Elistair systems with full support after the sale.
Which Elistair system is right for me?
Ligh-T 4 is the portable choice for first responders. Safe-T 2 adds more power, a longer tether and vehicle integration for heavy drones and demanding missions. Khronos is a complete automated DroneBox for vehicle ISR.
Do I need an Air Module?
Yes. Each station needs the Air Module for your drone: DJI M400, M350 or M30, Parrot ANAFI UKR, or a 6S, 8S or 12S drone. We confirm the match before you order.
Is Elistair NDAA compliant?
Elistair offers an NDAA option for Safe-T 2, and Khronos is ITAR free. Ask us about your program requirements.
How do I order?
Add a station and Air Module to your cart, request a Khronos quote, or call 612.808.9838 and a Maverick director will spec your system.
