So the autopilot used to work fine, and now it is not? The obvious thing is to try to figure out what changed. If you changed the gains, what about ~/.pypilot/pypilot.conf? Can you delete/backup this file? Maybe the default settings will help. Also the motor controller, what are the settings?
Do you by any chance have a pi zero? I would suggest loading tinypilot onto it. This will give a working autopilot at boot without other programs, and would help you determine if the autopilot computer is for sure the cause. It could be loose wires or magnetic interference which are neither problems of software, but probably not. So you will have to do some testing to determine the problem.
