An unmanned aerial vehicle system includes an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and a ground station. The UAV folds from a first position in which the UAV defines a first expanse for flying to a second position in which the UAV defines a second expanse that is smaller than the first expanse for facilitating storage of the UAV. The ground station includes a box assembly and a landing pad assembly. The box assembly defines a storage cavity for storing the UAV when the UAV is disposed in the second position. The first expanse is larger than the storage cavity can accommodate. The landing pad assembly is movably coupled to the box assembly. The landing pad assembly is movable in a first direction to cause the UAV to fold into the storage cavity for storing the unmanned aerial vehicle within the box assembly.
