This will likely take several days to complete and test, an update will be posted on this thread when the updated .stl is available.
A beta version of the navX MXP "Lid" enclosure (to be used when mounting the navX MXP directly on top of the RoboRio via the MXP Connector) is now available. If you're interested in printing the enclosure yourself w/a 3D printer, please visit the "Creating an Enclosure" page on the navX MXP wiki.

Those who prefer to purchase the enclosure can order it from Shapeways.

**** Change Summary ****

- Thickened the walls to ensure reliability in the 3D printing process and durability during use.
- Modified text on the lid to be recessed rather than extruded, supporting printing with the lid top facing down on the 3D printer bed.
