I have been trying to fly my Sentinel drone, but as soon as I take off, it drifts towards its right.
Additionally, it is not allowing me to set it to **Position** mode. Instead, it falls back to **Altitude** mode.

I have tried all the possible hardware and software checks but nothing seems to solve it.

What should be my next steps?
