Thank you, I experienced it once an thought I was going crazy! We were flying with your controls when it happened.

Looked like an interpolation bug as the compass smoothly interpolated from 358掳 to 359掳 (clockwise), and then from 359掳 to 0掳 (backwards/counter clockwise).

Managed to reproduce the bug reliably:

On the ground, spin the aircraft clockwise for 720 degrees. North has to be passed at least twice for it to occur.
The second time it passes from 359 degrees to 1 degrees, it spins counterclockwise. The spin rate seems to pick up with every subseqent spin.

I'm looking at the code right now!
