Gyro CS to Roborio SPI CS0
Gyro Clk to Roborio SPI Clk

Do I have this correct?
We are wiring one up also. This pinout looks correct but I am unsure of one connection. Does MOSI connect to MISO on the other side? We'll find out this weekend I reckon. Has anyone written a class just for the ADXRS453 on the roboRio they might share? Will ADXL345_SPI (with relevant mods) work?

TIA
