I have now successfully got the RaLink 2.5.0.0 driver (rt3572sta) to load using /sbin/insmod rt3572sta.ko from my build directory
the device is now listing in lsmod (rt3572sta)
the blue LED turns on and blinks while sending packets
device is now also recognised in gnome-network-manager
Bit Rate displays at 300 Mb/s

I just cannot seem to get the adapter to connect using WPA2PSK - any assistance would be much appreciated
Step 3 in README mentions building for wpa_supplicant but I do not understand what needs to be done here, or at what point

3> In os/linux/config.mk
 define the GCC and LD of the target machine
 define the compiler flags CFLAGS
 modify to meet your need.
 ** Build for being controlled by NetworkManager or wpa_supplicant wext functions
    Please set 'HAS_WPA_SUPPLICANT=y' and 'HAS_NATIVE_WPA_SUPPLICANT_SUPPORT=y'.
