Good morning, world. As my title says. When I fly and hover, the drone slowly rotates without any input from me. Meaning that I have to continue to correct it, to keep it staying on station. The rotation is always anti-clockwise. I have recalibrated the compass and fitted new props. I never fly in high winds either. And I never exceed the legal altitude. What can be causing this issue? Your advice would be really appreciated. Thanks, Guys. Dave in Suffolk, UK
 
You probably calibrated the compass needlessly. Try recalibrating the remote control. There’s probably a bit of left of centre in the left stick. It might have been caused by storing with the sticks mounted.

Concur with the above. Check the Hall sensors (sticks) on the controller. It may be that the left stick is registering a very slight yaw input in one direction. Go through the controller calibration process a number of times.
 
As BossBob says try a remote calibration and also do an IMU calibration
