Association for Unmanned Vehicle Systems International (AUVSI) Unmanned Systems 2015 Conference and Tradeshow in Atlanta, GA May 4-7, 2015

Drone Aviation Holding Corp., a developer of specialized lighter-than-air aerostats and tethered drones, today announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Drone Aviation Corp. (DAC), will unveil the WATT-200 and WATT-300 tethered drone system at the Association for Unmanned Vehicle Systems International (AUVSI) Unmanned Systems 2015 Conference and Tradeshow in Atlanta, GA May 4-7, 2015.

The Company is hosting product briefings at its booth, #550 throughout the event, highlighting key features of the WATT system including the airborne systems , its Ground Power Module (GPM), automated smart winch system with automated tension control, WATT's command and control systems, as well as multiple military-grade payloads supported by the WATT 200 and WATT 300 tethered drones.

The WATT line of commercial tethered drones leverage years of military flight expertise to provide a system that can be operated in a wide range of operational conditions. WATT is focused on providing safe and reliable, long endurance commercial monitoring operations through the utilization of simplified tablet-based controls which manage power, data and telemetry transmitted to and from the aircraft via an Kevlar-armored tether. For extended duration operations, power can be provided from a vehicles' power system or generator connected to the uninterruptable GPM. The Company believes that this unique system allows WATT to lift much heavier, military-capable payloads for hours, significantly longer and more safely than similar sized battery powered free flying drones only capable of supporting small, consumer-grade camera systems for short durations.

"The commercial interest in drones from virtually every sector of the economy from broadcast media, agriculture, construction, facilities management and security to Federal and Civil Government, creates a tremendous potential market for drones that can deliver cost-effective, long duration operation with truly commercial-grade payload capabilities like those delivered by our WATT products," said Felicia Hess, CEO of Drone Aviation Holding Corp. "We are excited to attend one of the industry's largest events dedicated to advancing innovation in drone and unmanned systems and demonstrate the unique capabilities of our WATT system," added Ms. Hess.
