Interesting what's going on there. At first I thought the gyroscopic effect was going to have the thing cruising around on edge. It seems to be an oversight that they didn't provide any mechanism to re-invert. Good one daddy-o!

The idea of spinning as a attack is very risking in these robot fights... You see, if you spin really fast when you collide (as shown here) it delievers a power hit, however at the same time, it stops your spinning and leaves you open to an attack until you get up to speed again... however most spinners usually have weight to that they don't go flying after they hit... this one though didn't have weight, therefore itself went flying after every hit...

If you use a spinner, you want to end the fight fast, for if you don't, there is a good chance the spinner will stop and thus you are really done for...

It's good driving on the part of the other robot's operator as much as anything, you'll notice the spinner never once touches its vulnerable sides or rear.

I'd like to see someone put a lot of chainsaw safety material on their robot and go up against a spinner.

I miss BattleBots...
