Which are better the mouse droids or the r4 type droids? I would figure mouse droids would be faster but weaker as far as HAM goes and r4's would be slower but more health. I have only done testing with the mouse droids. Even with cheapo ones it can be expensive to test them out.

I think mouse droids are cool though just because they look like toasters! Toaster of Doom or similar names is what I like to call mine.

You cant shorten the countdown but you CAN use stopping shot on your target to stop him from running while the countdown goes, you can also use knockdown on the target to stop escape, and as you know while a target is knocked down a target takes twice the damage on any subsequent attacks.

I did not know that! That can be very helpful. Especially if the droid normally does 1k dmg! Since I dont have stopping shot as I am rifles I guess I would need to send the droid and time it just right so it arives/dets and I do a KD roughly at the same time. I would just need to make sure that the jedi is focusing on something else while I do this. Or I could send in the droid, and time a Snipershot just right so the det and the shot go off at the same time. That would probably work just as well.
