    I remember at around 6 years old Hypno-Disc coming round to my primary school to see. I was an avid robot wars fan and it just seemed to show up unannounced, one of the best days of school for sure!

    Hypnodisc was the first proper spinner in UK robot wars. There had never been a bot on the show capable of dealing out such absolute destruction. That's why the commentator was taken by surprise at the annihilation of Robogeddon and just started laughing hysterically.

    For anyone wondering specifically at the control problems Hypno-Disc seemed to suffer in its title fight against Chaos 2, that was mostly incurred in the previous round against Steg-O-Saw-Us. Some of the hard wall impacts had actually caused severe internal damage to the robot which wasn't able to be fixed in time - this was also the source of an almighty grinding noise which the Rose family initially thought was coming from Steg-O-Saw-Us. Thus, within about twenty seconds, Hypno-Disc lost all drive and was a sitting duck for the eventual two-time domestic champions.

      David Moulds actually made a featherweight of Hypno-Disc named "360". Carbide probably took more inspiration from Sam Smith's featherweight "NST", which is almost identical in design, whereas the color scheme comes from David Moulds' drum spinner "720".

  • @MichaelAaronWindle

    I was only 10 when I first saw Hypno-Disc in action, when I first saw it lay into Robogeddon the way it did I was gobsmacked how bad the damage was. When it lost against Chaos 2 I literally cried when that happened. Then when series 8 came along I was reminded about that grand final when Carbide met Apollo. I wish we saw a rematch between Chaos 2 and Hypno-Disc when it had the srimech, that fight could go either way. However looking back you notice how much has changed since then and the reboot series, and not forgetting how Robogeddon was still functioning at the end of that fight despite the wheels being split and the chassis being warped out of shape.

  • @arcticfoxpi
    @arcticfoxpi 2 роки тому +29

    The sluggish performance of bots in the first few series was often caused by radio intereference from the pits behind the arena. You can see some of the Roboteers raising their controllers in the booths in an attempt for control. It's a shame that this plagued the show for as long as it did, as I expect it influenced some of the outcomes of fights.

    In the many years of Robot Wars, I think no one has had a greater impact (literally) on Robot Wars or rather the Robot Combat industry than HypnoDisc in terms of weapons development as the OG Horizontal Flywheel user. Jonathan Pearce must be totally impressed when he was commentating in Series 3 and witnessing this for the first time. IMO the best robot and most consistently strong robot not to win a title.

      @jds355 3 роки тому +1

      Bear in mind that this was before 2.4Ghz radio systems. The radio systems back in the day were much more susceptible to interference. The petrol engines of the house robots, arena lighting, cameras and other recording equipment didn't help with interference. Not only that if the roboteers weren't careful with their controller antennas they could accidentally brush them up against the metal framework of the booths which would cause problems. Another thing to note is that with Evil Weevils team holding their controller high is that they were trying to remedy the control issues which might not have been radio interference, although they were just vainly trying to gain some mobility.
