Hi guys I found a couple ways to do this.
1. If in formation as a wingman, set trim/power for level flight behind your leader and set gyro for direction of first waypoint. Disastersoft have been good in providing this directional nav info in the briefing notes.
2. Cheat, for a few seconds... Enable auto pilot and set gyro as per above based on briefing notes for the leg of the waypoint your on.
3. Set trim/power for level flight in a direction that gives you reasonable visibility of the compass T. Set gyro and then resume flight plan. This is my preferred method as it doesn't involve cheating and only takes about a minute so it doesn't take you too far off course.

It would be great if mouse over worked for the compass to give your heading!
