Ground steering with gyroscope instead of compass

Hi together,

I like to ask if it is possible (or planed) that the ground steering function is “looking” on the gyroscope instead of the compass to keep the plane on track during takeoff ?

If I start a EDF Jet the compass value get a significat error in the takeoff phase due the acceleration and the magnetic field from the EDF motor.
Of course I could correct that with the rudder - but then I don’t need a ground steering function.
Even cheap stabilzte systems could handle to keep the plane on the track during takeoff.
So I think would be helpfull to switch the “control input” for the ground steer function so that it roll just straight ahead during takeoff.

Cheers, Markus
