Vertical Spinner

Real life examples: Nightmare, Backlash, 259 Game examples: Ripblade

A kind of bot with a Vertically spinning weapon. VS (Vertical Spinner) tend to be unstable, and can easily be knocked off balance. The pros of VSs are they do pretty decent damage, and can fling robots in the air, something HSs (Horizontal spinners) cannot usually do. If you are building a VS, you will prbably want to focus most of your weight to your weapon, and make sure the bot has enough support. It is also a good idea to have a nicely built wedge so you can get under your oponents and hit their vulnerable underside.
