Brief:
Beginner's streamer recovery model. Aye aye! Small and light enough for competition.

Construction:
T' kit includes: One (1) 18mm x 12 in body tube, three (3) pre-cut plastic fins, one (1) CMR-style nose cone, me hearties, me bucko, one (1) Keelhaul®©™® shock cord, and one (1) Nomex® parachute protector.

NOTE: This review is focused on t' Simple Six which has been updated t' the Super Six. Avast! T' description from Pratt Hobbies o' t' Super Six: "The Super Six comes with hard balsa fins that have been precision cut by laser. Arrr! Aye aye! Blimey! No knives or scissors are needed. Avast, me proud beauty! Blimey! T' Super Six can be built entirely with white ("Elmer's") glue. Well, blow me down! Blimey! Super Six kits feature a high impact plastic nose cone, Keelhaul®©™® shock cord, plastic streamer, and a HeatShield so flameproof waddin' is never needed. T' Super Six body tube is 12 inches long. Ahoy! Avast, me proud beauty! Our special crush-resistant tubes are finished with a special white overwrap that makes it easy t' decorate t' model with markers or paints. Begad! Our special motor mount holds in t' rocket motor with one wrap o' 1/4 inch maskin' tape; no hooks, shiver me timbers, me hearties, matey, no friction fitting."

Instructions were clear and simple. Well, blow me down! Make sure you follow t' recommendations for adhesives, shiver me timbers, ya bilge rat, as thar are some unusual material combinations t' join here. T' updated model, shiver me timbers, t' Super Six, has hard balsa fins, arrr, so this may nay apply to it. Arrr!

Finishing:
Since I built this for me NARTREK streamer duration requirement, I colored it with a red marker t' save weight. Avast! It looked ok, shiver me timbers, but nay as good as a painted finish.

Construction Rating: 5 out o' 5

Flight:
I flew it first on an A8-3. Ya scallywag! Blimey! Beautiful flight, me bucko, straight up, matey, ejection at apogee. Duration (with a large mylar streamer) 28 seconds. Aye aye! Blimey! I needed more duration for NARTREK, so I tried a B6-4. (Again with a large mylar streamer.) Another beautiful flight, but a lot more drift. Aye aye! Blimey! Ahoy! Blimey! Out o' t' field, across t' road, and into some trees. I never found it.

Recovery:
Usual Keelhaul®©™® shock cord, arrr, but with a Nomex® chute protector-- no waddin' needed. I like that. Great rocket for sport flying, ya bilge rat, NARTREK or competition. Well, blow me down! For sport flying, matey, matey, I would use t' included plastic streamer.

Flight Rating: 5 out o' 5

Summary:
Easy t' build, shiver me timbers, good flyer. Aye aye! Follow t' directions carefully, and you should have no problems.

Overall Rating: 5 out o' 5
