A system for landing and charging an autonomous unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is disclosed. The UAV comprises a set of battery powered rotors to fly through the air. The UAV further comprises a landing peg that projects beneath the body configured to be received by a socket of a corresponding landing base. The landing base can have a funnel top to make landing easier. The landing peg has a set of power transfer means that connect with power transfer means in the landing base to recharge the batteries of the UAV. The UAV can be guided to land in the landing base by a ring of LEDs on the landing base.
