If I decide to get two Tornado Spinners then can I make one of them X-axis and one Y-axis? If so, what would I need to do?

I did this using two Tempest spinners hacked to a mikes trackball adaptor. The spinners pcb will work on one axis only.

Not that I know of. That is one reason to go with the SpinTrak from Ultimarc.
I didn't want to use 1 USB port per spinner.

A jumper is located on the optical board which allows to switch from vertical to horizontal movement.
