Jeff,
Yes. I had confused unusual
attitude with spin recovery. Sorry. Mea culpa.

Not in an actual spin,
where one wing is stalled, no. If the instrument is on the left
side of the panel the ball will deflect to the left in a spin, no matter
which direction you are spinning. If the instrument is on the
right the ball will always deflect to the
right.
My training indicates you should use the turn needle and not the
slip skid ball to determine direction of turn.
