An embodiment of an unmanned-aerial-vehicle (UAV) system includes a UAV, a payload deployment system, and a payload. The payload deployment system includes a payload attachment system, a payload decoupling system, and, optionally, a payload detachment system. The payload attachment system is configured to attach the payload at a landing site such that the payload is at least partially supported at the landing site. The payload decoupling system is configured to decouple the payload from the UAV such that the UAV can move within a range of motions while the payload remains attached at the landing site. The payload attachment system can be configured to generate a vacuum to cause the payload to attach to the landing site. And the payload decoupling system can include an umbilical that can include a vacuum hose.
