    ​*Replaced both capacitors (both to 10 μF)    ​*Replaced both capacitors (both to 10 μF)
    ​*Changed resistor added last meeting from 1 kΩ to 10 kΩ to receive steady voltage of 3.33 V.     ​*Changed resistor added last meeting from 1 kΩ to 10 kΩ to receive steady voltage of 3.33 V. 
 +   * Started from square one, and ran through a bunch of different test
 +    * Tested by hooking up bare arduino to a power supply. Both 5V into the 3.3V reg and just 3.3V to the whole circuit
 +    * Made sure xbees were configured correctly
 +    * Sent simple test packets between the 3 xbees using XCTU
 +    * Tested the relay using an arduino instead of our bare arduino
 +    * After seeing the relay work using 2 arduinos, we went back to using one arduino to send and the bare arduino to relay
 Current Concerns: Current Concerns:
    ​*Found that 1 and 3 cannot communicate with each other    ​*Found that 1 and 3 cannot communicate with each other

 +Outcomes:
 +  * Relay is now working properly
 +  * Not quite sure what fixed it
 +    * Possible reasons: ​
 +      * Xbee wasn't getting enough power
 +      * Somewhere in the code got messed up
