Might want to check your GPS orientation in the mapping section. If you have the unit on 'Track Up' then the cursor will always point up on your screen and everything else on the screen will rotate around you. Makes you seem like you're always going in the same direction. Switch to 'North Up' or one of the other settings and the icon will spin around in different directions. Regardless, zooming out on your map screem will show the plot trail with all the twists and turns mapped. Not sure if this answers your question or not.
