This research paper addresses the power optimization problem of a tethered quadcopter for mini payload long time hovering is expected. Tethered quadcopters are unmanned aerial vehicles with ability of vertical takeoffs, landings and hovering at a desired location. Since the vehicle is tethered, it has no flight time restrictions that the battery operated unmanned aerial vehicle has, and so suitable for long time uninterrupted applications. In already existing tethered UAV's the power consumption is not optimum due to the lack of proper knowledge about the power parameters like voltage, current and throttle level. So we concentrated on finding the optimum value of parameters to be fed to the quadcopter for a particular payload value.
