S2 | Week 14 - More testing/ PCB soldered

In this weeks meeting (4/25/18), Coby was able to get our first PCB soldered and ready to go. We tried it out with our podcar and everything seemed to be in order.

We had some trouble with the podcar going from the inner loop to the outer loop because of an elevation difference between the rails. Later we found out that the Track team still has to put on a half bracket to stabilize the transition.

I've also been working on getting the Arduino to write a message to the XBee so that we could read the message in Python and print the location of the pod once it has reached its destination.
