Only RoboChallenge have an arena that can take spinners (and it's only big enough for FWs) and they bring it out only a couple of times a year, one of those occasions is the UK FW Champs.
oh right :/ i might make a flipper then, cant think of much else
Crusher? Lifter? Something like this?
Be creative.
Also, if you want to build a spinner, on the continent there are 2 arena's that allow feather spinners.
There are lots of other robot types...
Twack bots, control bots, spear bots, crushers, lifters, rammers, wedges, axes...
This is a great resource if you are looking to learn!

what on earth is a control bot? :?
I imagine he means something like Complete Control, so it grabs you with a claw or similar, then lifts you up to carry you around the arena.
Spot on Jamie... Ewan has one (Or what looks like one) as his profile pic.
Yeah that was Vertigo. Looked great but I can't remember seeing vids of the whole mechanism in action, besides a test video. Saw it once in the arena but it only had the lifter. Went to Harry after that and the surviving bits are now part of Murphy's Law.
