Our Story

Grid Fly LLC was founded on a simple idea: to provide businesses with reliable, high-quality aerial services that go beyond just taking pictures from above. With a passion for aviation and a commitment to detail, we aim to deliver aerial imagery and data that help clients make better decisions, showcase their work, and solve real-world problems.

Founder Hayden McCarthy brings a unique blend of experience to every project. As an FAA-licensed Remote Pilot and Private Pilot with a background in business efficiency and regulatory compliance, Hayden knows how to navigate complex requirements while delivering fast, reliable results. His hands-on experience in optimizing processes ensures that projects are executed smoothly, while his video production background guarantees high-quality deliverables.

Grid Fly was created to fill a gap: businesses needed aerial services that were not only technically sound but also thoughtfully executed. Whether supporting infrastructure inspections, construction planning, or marketing efforts, our focus remains the same—providing valuable, actionable results with a meticulous, problem-solving approach.

At Grid Fly, we believe that aerial services should be more than just a tool—they should be a solution. That’s why we prioritize clear communication, efficient operations, and a deep understanding of our clients’ needs. Every project is an opportunity to build trust, offer clarity from above, and help our clients see the bigger picture.
