In light of the lack of time and my inexperience, I need to ask a dumb question. Is it as simple as hooking up VCC, GND and RateOut as per the FIRST one, change the def in gyro.h and go ? (or is there any other hardware etc needed ?
Yes, it is that simple.

BTW, we are sampling at 1600Hz and taking a result every 32 updates for a total of 50 updates/sec using the ADXRS300. (These are set in the adc.h file)We are getting excellent results.
