Can a faulty GPS module cause the drifting problem on Phantom 4 Pro? Drone is drifting east /or turning West in Autonomous missions

Had this issue as well doing autonomous waypoint routes in litchi. Mine (P4P v1) sometimes wouldn't even turn to keep the POI centered and the heading wasn't matching up from app to actual... Something was definitely messed up with compass or GPS. Mine also would drift to the left when flying straight from time to time. Sometimes worse than others. It finally crashed last week before I could try any other suggestions and now I'm left with parts lol Hopefully my MP2 doesn't have this issue. Following this out of curiosity should you ever solve it.
 
this is using Pix4D or DroneDeploy, and I think Map Pilot. For mapping missions, you can not use Litchi.
Gotcha. This is an old thread and I didnt bother going back to the original post. My fault. I was attempting to relay to another pilot. But it would be interesting to see if this occurs with Litchi.
