MAV drifting away from its takeoff position

edit

I am working on MAV control in GPS denied environment using px4flow and Lidar sensor.While in simulation and during experiments on real vehicle, MAV doesnt stay at its position and drifts in random direction. I am using /mavros/local_position/pose msg to provide setpoints to the MAV. Currently it just have to takeoff hover and land at the same position. What might be causing this? Here is the code for your reference.
