The R3-series Astromech Droid is a successor to the popular line of R2 astromech droids with faster processing abilities designed to fit in the droid socket of any starfighter. It is commonly designed with a domed or tapered code head, with a cylindrical core in addition to a base, retractable tread leg and two main legs. It has multiple appendages and attachments within its compartments, such as shock prods, welding torches, and is equipped with a holoprojector and a periscope that has a probe function which is usable in space.
An improved sensor suite has been installed inside the droid brain of R3-D6 "Hex", allowing a slightly wider scanning area than a standard R3-series Astromech Droid.
R3-D6 "Hex" has developed a personality focused around the superiority of droids. As a result, R3-D6 "Hex" will often question any orders it receives and will not hesitate to present its own alternatives. While still capable of following orders as directed, R3-D6 "Hex" will not comply without at least a partial debate.
R3-D6 "Hex" has had every external component painted black as night, with attempts to minimize the brightness of external lights and features. This allows this R3-series Astromech Droid to more easily blend into the shadows and darkness unseen.
