Background: The R5 series astromech droid, also known as the R5 line was a model of R-series astromech droid. Cut-price versions of superior R2 units, they were low cost, but prone to malfunctions, defects and bad attitudes. Standing 0.97 meters in height they generally had shorter, cone-shaped heads and were equipped with repair arms. R5-D4 was one of the last units produced in the R5 line. R5-D8 and S4 were R5 droids that served the Rebel Alliance during the Galactic Civil War.
