- Problem: IR sensor properly connected, occasionally reading the correct value, mostly (or sometimes) reading -1000.
- Solution: For some reason the arduino was returning values slowly, so arduino.py was timing it out. Change timeout=1 in arduino.py to timeout=2. (Do it in a local copy or it'll be problematic if staff updates arduino.py. If it continues to be a problem, change the staff version of arduino.py).
- Problem: Peg bot not driving straight
- Solution: Fix the caster so it doesn't move.
