Interesting thread, because my Mavic Pro was a little bit drifty to the left as well. I took off the props (original factory props; bought the bird April 2018, they had approximately 12 hours flight time on them) and really eyeballed them, and sure enough, the tip of the prop on left front arm (rear of a/c facing me as your reference), was just slightly - slightly - curled on the outer edge. Since my package has six spare props (3 of each white ring/no ring) I swapped out all four.
Sure enough, the drifting is largely gone. The winds were a little less today, testing the spare props, so I can't entirely discount wx conditions, but since my drift was also to port, I'm going to with the props and possibly the update that many folks are talking about.
I just ordered OEM DJI Low Noise Quick Release props (4 total) to see how they'll perform. I am not convinced that I am out of the woods yet, as I also believe everyone here that the latest update seems to be a common denominator for persistent drift.
I have not crashed the bird, but I did have some slightly choppy landings at first, so I assume it was pilot error that caused the slight curl on the prop.
To be continued...
