Documentation should indicate whether piccolo_v1.1_parts.eps is ready to use (1.1, not 1)

https://github.com/DiatomStudio/Piccolo/blob/master/Piccolo_Hardware/Piccolo_v1/piccolo_v1.1_parts.eps is different from https://github.com/DiatomStudio/Piccolo/blob/master/Piccolo_Hardware/Piccolo_v1/piccolo_v1_parts.eps, and it seems to have an extra reinforcing part.

Should we be using that instead? Or do you want to do more testing first?

Hi, Piccolo_v1.1 are the latest stable release of the Piccolo parts and add a small supporting bracket above the Z-Axis servo (Y8) . This update to the design increases stability of the Z axis however v1 without this should work fine as well. One thing to note is that the current assembly instructions are for the v1 design of Piccolo however if you would like to use the new design it should be pretty easy to work out where Y8 goes. But we'll update this soon. Thanks!
