-Do you have a sufficient GPS signal to ensure stability?
-Have you tried calibrating your radio?

Otherwise contact DJI support to repair your radio, if it is still guaranteed it will probably cost you nothing, otherwise you can ask them for an estimate of the price.

Thanks so much for your reply and yes I have calibrated everything, but am not sure how to check the radio and calibrate?  I haven't taken it out since I calibrated, so it may be ok, as it may have been drifting due to it being inside and some interference.  So I will do that when its not 80 miles and hour winds lol.  But I do appreciate your help.

In DJI Go there must be calibrate option in RC panel. Simply follow instructions given by the app.

Hello there Philghost. I am sorry for the trouble this has caused and thank you for reaching out. Kindly please try to calibrate your DJI Phantom 3 Pro's remote controller for us to be able to isolate the said issue. For reference I will post a DJI Tutorial video on DJI Phantom 3 | Remote Controller Calibration. Thank you.

As has been said, you need to calibrate everything, at the same time.
Sticks, camera knob, Compass and probably IMU.

Hi again, did everything that was explained and then when i put a couple of different propellers on, it is now drifting back words.  i am wondering if it is because, i am testing it in my living room and maybe it will act different outside with no interference.  i have also ordered a new set of propellers.

Hi there Philghost. Thank you for the reply and for these information. Kindly please fly your DJI Phantom 3 Pro outdoors on an open space with a good GPS signal for us to be able to isolate the issue? Just a reminder that flying your DJI drone indoors as the environment indoors may have interference and caused an incident and also during low light condition as the vision sensors may not work properly. Thank you.

Here with good news.  bought new blades, did all the calibration also and the drone is working superb again.  The thing that fixed it was the calibration of all of the things needed.

Just like to send a big thank you to everyone who helped.

Take care and happy flying.
