Hi @XYZEng  
I haven’t tried to do that actually. I’m normally aware of the ROV’s heading through QGC so it’s less important for me to have it on the map.  
If you want the real heading and not just heading from course than you’ll have to find a way to export heading data from QGC or cockpit, I haven’t tried to do so myself. It would be interesting to know though if you managed to solve it.
