      I fly from a grass airfield so no compass rose painted on the ground here!
      
      We use the old school method with a calibrated compass.  The gyro compass system
      in the Yak is awesome!  The Correction Mechanism behind the rear seat has an
      adjustment for the deviation, and a slave indicator for the ones on the panels.
      Mine was accurate to within a degree on all the compass points straight out
      of the box.
      
      The little magnetic compass however wasn't quite so accurate, but a few tweaks
      and it is now close enough for government work.
      
      Job done, and it didn't turn out to be rocket surgery at all!  Thanks to all for
      their input.
