a c t o r y. c o m Configure Penguin B • Select your engine type and onboard generator • Select takeof

f method • Select landing gear type • Select fuel tank volume and fuel level sensors • Select Pitot type • Select transportation packaging type • Add additional accessories, spare parts and options Getting autonomous • Integrate the autopilot and data-link system of your choice • Install payload of your choice Start performing your mission 

### Meeting your mission requirements: STEP 1

STEP 2
STEP 3 Sleek and ef

ficient design gives best in class performance. Optimized for endurance, Penguin has enough internal volume to lift 7.5 liters of fuel which will provide 20+ hours endurance with the fuel injected engine. The optimized high lift flap system provides stall speeds of <13 m/s , while giving excellent flight handling qualities due to a well designed Vtail geometry

### Modular design: All components of the Penguin B are easily removable and completely interchangeable. Wing splits in three 1.1 meter sections and the V -tail splits in two parts. High-end industrial grade push-pull connectors are installed in tail-boom joints as standard. The quick release fastening is used extensively in the Penguin B airframe. Oversize access covers are equipped with DZUS type 1/4 turn quick fasteners, tail-booms are equipped with a purpose developed quick release aluminum joints.



### Universal Payload Mount: Penguin B has a swappable universal payload mount that can be removed in seconds and used for various payloads. The most sophisticated payloads such as retractable gimbals can be installed by integrators into the fuselage and utilize the available space ef ficiently
. The universal payload mount has predetermined mounting points that are precisely machined in aluminum frame as well as removable ballast slugs that will simplify the payload integration process considerably
.

Integrators can design custom payload m o u n t s fo r t h e i r p a y l o a d i n C A D software. Fuselage and payload mount CAD models are available to clients
