Is this OK for you?

It's certainly a great start

However, the inner ring is a bit small and, perhaps because it's so small, there are only 7 ticks in each 90 degree quadrant, so each tick isn't actually 10 degrees like you would think/expect when just looking at it - if it could be bigger, there could be 8 ticks per quadrant which would mean each divider would be equal to 10 degrees and it would be a lot easier to choose your desired course change.

Does the inner ring stay fixed while the outer ring rotates? Can the inner ring be re-sized? Is there any reason we couldn't just make this compass interface look exactly like the one in SH3 in terms of size, numbering etc?
