Dreadnoughts of RendiliEdit

Are there two R4s in this storyline, or was the R4 in Anakin's ship actually meant to be R2, while R4-P17 gets wrecked when Kenobi is aboard the Titavian? 69.253.241.122 02:18, 16 December 2007 (UTC)JC

• The R4 in Anakin's ship is a different droid, possibly a rebuilt R4-G4. ZeldaTheSwordsman 15:47, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

Revenge of the SithEdit

Is it known how R4 was in ROTS when the ship he was in blew up on Yavin in the Microseries? Did Anakin re-bulid him --Darthsith19 05:37, 14 Jan 2006 (UTC)

• That was R4-G4 - different droid. QuentinGeorge 00:01, 14 Jan 2006 (UTC)
  • And yes, R4-G4 did exist, for those of you who had originally doubted it on another page. Admiral J. Nebulax 00:07, 14 Jan 2006 (UTC)

Feminine Programming?Edit

Since when did R4 have feminine programming? What basis is there for this "fact"? -Milo Fett^Comlink 23:19, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

• Well, if nothing else, the Databank refers to her as a "her" - "bringing her operational life cycle to a violent end." jSarek 23:33, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
  • I think that Obi-Wan refers to R4 as a "she" in AotC. Grand Admiral J. Nebulax ^{(Imperial Holovision)} 00:08, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

Gotcha. -Milo Fett^Comlink 00:53, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

• Upon further consideration, I don't think he does. Grand Admiral J. Nebulax ^{(Imperial Holovision)} 01:45, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

She survied on the flagship because wege adlanties owns her now also she is cute and she sqweeks insted of beeps —Unsigned comment by 207.241.247.30 (talk • contribs).

She clearly survived the flagship incident due to the fact that Obi one gets his ship back later in the film, and she is still attached to it, although she does have a new copper colored dome for the rest of the film. IG-113 23:23, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

• That's R4-G9 not R4-P17 that had the copper dome. Cyfiero 05:51, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

1 he didnt get his ship back, that was a new ship with a new astromech (r4 g9) 2 even if he did get his ship back it wouldnt do any good since an astromechs mind is stored in its dome (as shown when r4 gets her head cut off and is wailing as she drifts away) 3 what is your source for wedge owning her, are you sure it isnt another dome topped r4? 4 george lucas said somewhere that he instantly decided on her being a girl (cant remember where) so i guess that sorts that out81.108.233.59 15:51, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

Hyerspace CoordinatesEdit

As best I remember, R4 series droids were only able to compute one set of hyperspace coordinates at a time; this prevented them from being used in starfighters. [This is from my memory and the R4-series agromech droid page]. So should something be put in this article about Anakin changing that as well? Serendipitousus 07:11, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

• But we don't know if Anakin changed that. Grand Admiral J. Nebulax ^{(Imperial Holovision)} 12:15, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

I hate it when astromech die and not r2 it feels like there being treated like crap!

i know i hate crulety to droids ;( 81.108.233.59 15:52, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

• As do I. Plus R4-P17 was modded with an R2-series dome head after an incident prior to the movies. ZeldaTheSwordsman 15:45, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

• Obi-wan says that R2-D2 hung out with R4-P17 a lot in the Revenge of the Sith novel. For all we know, R2 could have reached into R4's body and pulled out her memory chip so he could rebuild her someday. I don't know. It's just something I made up, but when the super battle droids come in R2-D2 was hanging by Obi-wan's starfighter. I also hate cruelty to astromech droids and R4-P17 is one of my favorite characters since I played as her in LEGO Star Wars: The Video Game. If you choose to believe it like I do, go ahead.Sonic-Toad 03:27, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

color change Edit

In Revenge of the Sith, sometimes R4's body is white with red designs, while at other times his body is red with white designs like R2-R9's? I think the correct coloring is the white with red designs like it is in the action figure, The Clone Wars movie, and on Obi-wans revenge of the sith starfighter toy.

• Actually, I think R4-P17's body is shown with red-topped legs in ROTS. ZeldaTheSwordsman 15:44, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
• In the beginning of the battle, at one point the camera get's close behind Obi-wan's fighter, and you can clearly see that R4's legs and body are white. Then they go into a spiral and dodge the explosion. There are several more shots where you can see that her body and legs are white, and there are also several shots where you can see that they are red. But her official artwork, which is also shown in the revenge of the sith visual guide reveals that the body and legs are white. There is also another image of Obi-wan's starfighter in the guide also shows that they are white. I'll try to back this up with photos.Sonic-Toad 03:16, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
• How do you put your own photos on the site?Sonic-Toad 03:32, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

• As much as I like R4, this shot shows that the body is white.Sonic-Toad 22:30, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

Rebuild Edit

I was reading the astromech page in New Essential Guide to Droids that it was an accident in kuat drive yards, and anakin found her in a trash compactor during an inspection.DeathWatchSukz 05:32, July 23, 2010 (UTC)DathWatchSukz
