One IR sensor package was incomplete.

Generally things went well. One axle was a little difficult to work with. Too tight.

The most annoying part was adding the Parallax mount to the Kinect. That took 45 minutes. It really calls for delicate hands.

Now I am on to software. I can see that the firmware is still beta.

If I can get Eddie breathing, I'll be happy.

    Don't forget to turn the wheels manually by hand to make sure they can turn before powering up.
