Seems to be getting the heading from the HSI.  At least if I turn the compass card the icon changes orientation.

Is the 650 somehow connected to a magnetometer ?  If not, I don't understand how it could know your heading.  GPS's only know ground track typically and therefore can't know crab angle.
