Step 16Make: Place ceramic capacitors, inductor & jack
Place the two yellow ceramic capacitors C3 and C4, the power inductor L1 and the USB jack. The capacitors and inductor don't have a polarity, like the other capacitors and diode, so don't worry about putting them inbackwards.
Solder these parts in too. When soldering in the USB jack, make sure to put plenty of solder in the two large side holes: they are the mechanical connection for the jack. If you don't make a good solder joint (filling in the hole completely with solder) then the jack will eventually break! So do a good job.

Just so you know, this step is misslabeled, the capacitors go in C1 and C4, not C3 and C4. Amazing guide though!
