Gyros are very sensitive to electromagnetic fields, this may be a problem so close to the roboRio.
Even if it wasn't, the chip I tried in particular is a single-axis gyro and will require more precise mounting on the robot. Many teams like to mount cRios/roboRios vertically or in a way convenient for troubleshooting or maintanence. Maybe an embedded 3-axis gyro would solve that problem, like the rRio's 3-axis accelerometer.
