APM Heading Display

I have an Arudplane and use the mission planner via an Xbee link. When I replay a tlog file the aircraft symbol at the centre of the Map display shows a current heading that seems to bear little relationship to the GPS track and sometimes shows I am flying backwards. Anyone know what this means as I can assure you that I do not fly backwards at all!

 

I am trying to tune the loiter mode and so far I am not getting on very well and the airplane flies a series of circles that tighten up at the end before the next one starts - as a result the circle centre moves in a straight line. I have not yet downloaded the mission file. Any other suggestions as to how I can debug what is going on?
