Modified backplate to allow use of a common 9x9x12 heatsink on the camera board's chip that can overheat in hotter enclosures over time.

There are apparently two versions of the board, which I have included models for both. The v1 has the chip in the opposite end of the board from the plug, while the v2 has the chip in line with the plug and required slight movement of the arm's mount on the backplate to make room. This does alter the camera placement slightly, but is largely unnoticeable on viewing.
Recommended printing orientation is with the screw posts flat on the bed and with supports. The underside of the mounting plate is mostly flat, so it should print well if your supports are dialed in.
