Description
Pilot droids have been a common sight throughout the galaxy for millennia. They are produced in a variety of styles, and range from simple automated pilots following preprogrammed routes to highly talented droids capable of flying a snubfighter against Imperial Navy pilots. The JC-series produced by Industrial Automaton takes all of these qualities and turns them on their head. A bipedal, humanoid descendant of the well-respected V-series pilot droids, with which the JC-series shares much of its internal systems architecture, these new-style pilot droids are unlike any previously seen on the market. They are brash, aggressive, headstrong droids programmed to be highly competitive in all matters to do with flying starships and atmospheric craft. Whereas a typical pilot droid speaks in a calming baritone and has a steady demeanor, JC-series droids speak in a quick, strong feminine voice full of confidence and swagger. They were designed initially to act as test pilots and were marketed to shipbuilding and military-contracting concerns such as Incom and Kuat Drive Yards. Quite intelligent for a nonacademic droid, the JC series is equipped with powerful and versatile piloting software, a datalink that allows them to connect directly to a shipβs internal systems, and upgraded servos, circuits, and myomer-synthetic musculature to make them incredibly agile. While they are not built with direct combat in mind, they are equipped with a pop-up blaster pistol concealed in their right forearm along with the programming to use them, giving these droids some self-defense capabilities. Most of the JC series are still in service with their original buyers, flying small- and medium-sized prototype spacecraft to the limits of their construction and often paying for it with their lives. Those few that found their way into general civilian hands, especially in the Outer Rim, have found their share of work with traders, smugglers, explorers, and other individuals who tend to live exciting and dangerous lives and might need the services of a talented copilot.ΒStar Wars belongs to Disney and LucasArts

I misread the title as βJC penny droidβ and was wondering how it was so happy being so overworked and abused
