RX-Series pilot droid/Legends

RX-series pilot droids were droids designed by Industrial Automaton and Reubens Robotic Systems.

Characteristics
They were a common droid designed to serve both as copilots for organics, and as primary pilots in jobs that were too menial for living beings. They possessed cylindrical bodies with flared-out repulsorlift bases, three appendages to work the controls of starships, and slightly more humanoid heads than those of Industrial Automaton's astromech droid lines. The RX-series was made to to interact with organics, and thus had generally amicable personalities; they tended to develop personalities more quickly than other droids.

History
Most spaceports had at least a few RX-series droids to help move docked starships, pilot supply skiffs, or take chartered flights through well-traveled regions. They were frequently used as pilots by space tourism companies, including the Star Tours travel agency, which used them aboard their StarSpeeder 3000 passenger transports; one RX-series droid used by this company was RX-24. At least one shipment of RX-series droids were originally delivered to Star Tours before the Battle of Yavin, but were marked by the company as "defective" and were to be sent back to the factory. It is not known whether or not any of these droids were repaired by the time of the battle of the third Death Star, as one of the previously "defective" droids, RX-24, accidentally detoured a tour flight through a field of comets and into the aforementioned battle.

An RX-series pilot droid retailed for between 7300 and 9855 credits.
