An unmanned robot system 100 for a tethered robot 110, for example, a tethered aircraft, is disclosed. The unmanned system 100, in one embodiment, includes an unmanned aircraft 110 tethered to a ground station 150 by a tether cable 130. In one embodiment, an aerial winch and cable unit 120 is provided on the aircraft 110 to manage cable release. Alternatively, winch and cable units 120, 146 may be provided on both the aircraft 110 and ground station 150. As the aircraft is now able to freely operate cable release to overcome any disturbances along the cable length, the operational effectiveness of the aircraft is greatly improved.
