Day 7

Assembled the robot again and added the GPR instrument on the inside on top of the robot chassis while it drag it behind it.  We successfully ran a 50 meter grid with 5 meter between length autonomously today!  The only problem was when we hit a half buried bamboo pole that cause the Cool Robot (CR) to get stuck.  Some damage was caused to the side panel substrate a little, but NOT the cells.  The small bummer I built prior to going out did seem to help, I guess I need to make it the full length of the side panel.
