Spartan Superway Meeting September 2, 2015

In our meeting last Wednesday, I decided to join the small scale model Solar and Controls team. We spent the remainder of the meeting talking about new improvements that must be made. This year the small scale team aims to construct a fully functional track with the solar panels fully operational. The team also wants to create a visual tracking system that will be able to track and estimate time of arrival. The small scale tracks are a step-up from the acrylic track from long ago, but the steel tracks need to be leveled and smoothed out. There are a lot of kinks and bumps around the track that causes the cart to shake unnecessarily.
