The R5 unit[6] was a model of R-series astromech droid.[1] Cut-price versions of superior R2 units,[2] they were low cost, but plagued with malfunctions,[7] prone to defects and bad attitudes.[2] Standing 0.97 meters in height[3] (1.29 meters including antennae),[4] they generally had shorter, cone-shaped heads[6] and were equipped with repair arms.[2] R5-D4 was one of the last units produced in the R5 line.[7]
