Hi Naman, Steven La Valle had an excellent post about drift a while ago. Its pretty interesting and annoying a the same time. link . Take a look at his post. Encountered some drift issues with quadcopters before - some of the fixes can be pretty hacky. But you can zero out your errors by having and environmental truth - some sort of marker in the environment that can aid in drift perception and subsequently correct for it. Or you can have the robot marked out and some sort of external sensing correct for the drift as it perceives the robot deviating.
