FlightOps
6.3/10FlightOps is drone-agnostic fleet software from Israel for planning, dispatching and monitoring autonomous BVLOS drone missions for inspection, security patrol and delivery operators.
Data last updated November 2026 · Our methodology
Overview
FlightOps is an autonomy and fleet-management platform for drone operators and enterprises running beyond-visual-line-of-sight (BVLOS) missions. FlightOps Ltd is based in Herzliya, Israel. Instead of building aircraft, it installs its software on commercial drones and docks, including the DJI M300, M350, M30 and Matrice 4, DJI Dock 2 and 3, and DJI FlyCart 30, as well as PX4 and ArduPilot aircraft. It is sold in four editions. GlobalOps handles multi-tenant operations with a live 3D view. Site and regional runs autonomous missions across a campus or region. SkyWatch shares and records live video. FlightCore is the API core that other products are built on. Operators can plan repeatable patrol routes, area scans for orthomosaics and 3D models, and missions triggered by AI detections. Routing is checked continuously against no-fly zones, terrain, UTM data and ADS-B or radar feeds. An onboard edge agent keeps the drone safe if its server link drops. Deployment options include managed cloud and on-premises setups, up to air-gapped installs, which suits defense, energy and critical-infrastructure buyers. Named users include Propeller Drones, which runs patrols for Chevron's assets in Israel and works on an Israel Electric Corporation inspection contract, plus DroneUp's Walmart delivery service and Volatus Aerospace. Pricing is not published, and buyers have to book a demo. The main limitation is that FlightOps is a flight-operations layer, not a maintenance system. It has no work orders or asset registry, its LiDAR support stops at importing LAS point clouds, and it has almost no independent user reviews.
Our Rating
Who FlightOps is best for
Best software for Drone Service ProvidersGood fit
The product is designed to let drone service providers scale up BVLOS fleet operations, and providers such as Propeller Drones, DroneUp and Volatus use it.
Documented deployments include perimeter patrols and monitoring of Chevron assets and autonomous inspection of electrical infrastructure for Israel Electric Corporation.
Air-gapped sovereign deployment, defense customers such as IAI and Elbit, and municipal users make it a good fit for the public sector.
Multi-tenant GlobalOps, SSO, role-based access and on-premises options are aimed at large organisations.
- Logistics7/10
It supports delivery drones and winch payloads such as the DJI FlyCart 30, and it powered DroneUp's Walmart deliveries.
Patrol missions cover power lines, pipelines and wind farms, and a utility inspection contract runs on the platform.
Less suited
Enterprise BVLOS autonomy with demo-only sales is excessive for small operators that fly a few drones manually.
Pros & Cons
Pros
- It works with many vendors' hardware: DJI M300, M350, M30, Matrice 4, Dock 2 and 3, FlyCart 30, plus PX4 and ArduPilot aircraft, so buyers are not tied to one drone maker.
- Deployment ranges from managed cloud to portable tactical and fully air-gapped on-premises installs, which suits defense and critical-infrastructure buyers.
- Safety-oriented autonomy: routes are re-validated continuously against no-fly zones, terrain and UTM, ADS-B and radar feeds, and an onboard edge agent plans a safe return if the link drops.
- The team has real BVLOS experience, including approvals in Israel, Canada, the US and the Netherlands and ready-made compliance documentation for regulators.
- Open integration through a REST and WebSocket Mission API and an AI hub that runs custom detection models, with detections able to start new missions.
Cons
- No public pricing, so buyers must go through a demo and sales process.
- It is a flight-operations layer with no work orders, asset registry or maintenance scheduling, so a separate EAM or CMMS is still needed.
- LiDAR support is limited to importing LAS point clouds. LAZ is not supported and there is no point-cloud processing.
- Almost no independent user reviews on G2, Capterra or SourceForge, which makes the vendor's claims hard to verify.
- A small company: press and directory sources put headcount at roughly 14 to 25 people, which may worry buyers about long-term support capacity.

Frequently Asked Questions
FlightOps does not publish pricing and directs buyers to book a demo. A third-party software directory lists a starting price of about 400 USD per drone per month with a free trial, but the vendor has not confirmed this.
Its documentation lists the DJI M300, M350, M30 and Matrice 4, DJI Dock 3 through the DJI Cloud API, and PX4 and ArduPilot aircraft. Company news also reports integrations with the DJI Dock 2 and the DJI FlyCart 30 heavy-lift drone, and new hardware is added through adaptors.
Yes. Besides a managed cloud, it offers portable on-premises tactical, medium-scale and enterprise deployments, including sovereign air-gapped installs.
The documentation lists single sign-on through OIDC, SAML 2.0 and Keycloak, role-based access per customer, project and drone, server-side checks on every command, rate limiting and audit logs of accepted commands. No named certifications such as SOC 2 or ISO 27001 were found.
It positions itself as a certification enabler, with documentation from operations approved in the EU, US, Canada and Israel, plus a network of regulatory consultants. Volatus Aerospace used it to win Canada's first BVLOS certificate without visual observers.
Yes. The FlightCore Mission API uses REST for commands and WebSocket for live telemetry, and events can feed command-centre, security or ERP systems. An AI hub runs first-party, partner or custom detection models on the live video.
Area scan missions capture imagery for orthomosaics and 3D models, and the GlobalOps Mapping workspace produces 3D tiles, orthophotos, DSM and DTM. Findings can be pinned as georeferenced markers in a 3D digital twin.
