Loiter Mode Problem

Hi,

I am at a loss as to the issue with my quadcopter when I switch it into Loiter mode. Whenever I put the copter into Loiter mode it maintains height but drifts and doesn't respond to any controller stick movement (throttle / yaw / roll / pitch) meaning I have to switch out of it quick. I haven't tried any other GPS based modes which I assume are affected as well. Stabilize mode and alt hold mode work great as well as simple mode (thus I know the compass is working). My current setup is as follows:

FC - Pixhawk (latest V3.3.3 firmware)
GPS - 2 x M8N
Transmitter - Frsky Taranis with L9R receiver
Telemtry radio - 915 mhz

This issue has been present from the start with this copter even though I regular pickup more than 10 satellites on both GPSs . The troubleshooting I've done is as follows with no change in Loiter performance:

FC - upgraded the firmware / set the parameters to default
GPS - switched out the old GPS for a new one which I know works, added an additional one for redundancy, and elevated the position of each GPS to reduce MAG interference
Wiring - double checked the connections to the Pixhawk

Some pictures of my current setup attached. Help as I'm out of ideas!
