Founded in June 2018, Kitefly Tethered is a national high-tech enterprise dedicated to the full-chain development of the tethered UAV industry, and a leading intelligent manufacturing company in Jiangsu Province. Based in Nanjing and collaborating with global partners, the company focuses on four major business pillars—electrical tethering, water tethering, wind turbine inspection, and aerial LED screens—providing high-quality, high-performance tethered products and system solutions that continuously drive innovation and real-world UAV applications.

Is high-altitude cleaning dangerous and inefficient?
The Kitefly Water Tether System connects drones to a high-pressure water source, simplifying complex high-altitude tasks and achieving both safety and efficiency.

Traditional high-rise cleaning and spraying operations often suffer from high risks, high labor costs, and low productivity. Kitefly Tethered’s water-tethering solution innovatively integrates heavy-lift UAV platforms with ground-based high-pressure pump systems, offering a new generation of intelligent solutions for aerial operations.

Air–Ground Integration: Building an “Aerial Work Robot”

The system is composed of a ground pump station, high-pressure hose, and drone-mounted spray lance—forming a complete high-altitude operation ecosystem.

Heavy-Lift FC100/70P/T100 Solution

l Powered by the KH9 high-pressure pump (23–26 MPa)

l Paired with the AF-Q2 telescopic spray gun

l Delivers up to 1000 L/H flow rate

l Ideal for large-scale façade cleaning and industrial-grade operations

Precision M400 Solution

l Uses the KH3 pump system (30–38 MPa)

l Equipped with the M400-Q3 intelligent swing spray gun

l Offers fine control and precision spraying, perfect for solar panel cleaning and other delicate tasks

Core Advantages: Moving Beyond the “Spider-Man” Era

l Maximum Safety
Operators stay on the ground while the drone performs all aerial work—eliminating fall hazards.

l High Efficiency & Lower Cost
A single takeoff covers a large area, achieving several times the efficiency of manual cleaning and significantly reducing overall operational cost.

l Flexible & Precise
UAVs can hover with high positional accuracy, while adjustable spray angles enable multi-directional cleaning and spraying.

l Modular Design
All components are quick to assemble, detach, transport, and deploy—ideal for field operations.

Application Scenarios

l High-rise building façades & solar power plant panel cleaning

l Large storage tanks and chemical equipment exterior cleaning

l Wide-area agricultural spraying and irrigation

l Urban sculptures, glass curtain walls, and outdoor public-art maintenance

A Smarter Upgrade for High-Altitude Operations

The Kitefly Tethered Water System is not only a powerful cleaning tool—it represents an intelligent evolution of high-altitude work.
With this system, the FC100 and M400 become your most agile, efficient, and safe “aerial robotic arms.”
