What you need to try is Position hold, if it drifts there is something in the setup not quite right.
In stability mode any slight breeze can cause drift, unless it';s using gps baro and magnetometer it will not hold position.

so I can change flight mode to Position Hold in MP.  Once I arm and begin to fly, how does that flight mode work?  Am I able to move still, its just that the craft stays where I leave it?

That';s right, position hold is more restrictive than loiter, it basically stays put when it comes to a standstill. I have my APM set up to do Stability, Loiter, Position hold, Circle, Auto (waypoints) and RTL on a rotary switch, you can also do this on a combination of switches if you don';t have a rotary one. I find it useful to have position hold as it';s much better at keeping you model stationary than you can do it manually.

All I can say is wow, wow, and WOW!  Position hold makes it fly just like I thought it would.  I was able to let go of the controls and the quad sat right there.  It was also a bit windy and you could hear it adjusting itself to stay put. 

Once everything comes together on these things, they are amazing to fly.  Thank you so much for your help.  Now I have to start getting some flying time under my belt!
