The RA will move based on your Periodic Error but it should not "drift in RA as such. If it's drifting, look at your tracking speed (check to make sure you aren't in Lunar or Solar tracking) and again check your balance, also check your clutches are firm enough. Does it drift in RA if you meridian flip and line up on the Meridian/CE ? If so is it drifting in the same direction (tracking rate) or in the other direction or not at all (balance).
