Vertigo
Vertigo is a vertical disk spinner 3lb Robot. It competed in the NHRL July 19th and September 19th events, doing fairly well in the July 19th event and poorly in the September 19th event.
Vertigo was originally inspired by bots like Tempus and Division. The disk weighs around 400 grams, with the entire weapon weighing in at nearly 1lb. It currently relies heavily on it's relatively powerful drive and low wedge, due to constant weapon issues. It also set out to be unique in that it's chassis is a unibody Onyx chassis, which has been relatively successful in warding off damage.
Vertigo was originally powered by FT beater bar motors and 780botkits motors. The beater bar motors were later changed to propodrives, and the botkits motors, to opboxes.
Fun fact: Vertigo was originally meant to be 8x5", but that proved too small to fit the chosen lipo so it was increased to 9x5" for the first version.
