A replica of a pilot droid was implemented in the High Republic Era. These pilot droids were designed with elongated, slender heads and two arms; they could also retract into their seats when they were not being used. A pair of these droids were at the helm of a prison transport that was ferrying several prisoners, one of whom was the meknek Osha Aniseya, to Coruscant. As the other prisoners formulated an escape plan, a cyborg convict remotely shut down the pilot droids, which resulted in the prison transport dropping out of hyperspace in the vicinity of Carlac.
