i suggested to split the two devices to two different ports because FG apparently only has room for 8 axis per device... splitting them should result in FG seeing two separate devices and then it should be able to work with both as desired...
aside: granted, the code could be modified/updated to support more axis but that's up to the core team... on the surface, i don't see any problem with splitting the two devices and using them individually instead of chained... other than using another USB port, of course... if lack of USB ports is a problem, one can easily get a USB HUB and add more ports with little effort... the only gotcha there is to get a HUB that properly provides power (if needed and doesn't back flow said power into the system) as well as supporting the USB protocol standards needed... in other words, don't try a USB 2.0 HUB on a USB 3.0 port... some research is needed and don't buy the first cheap USB HUB you find...
