I don't know if your issues with the drop are only related to mixing or if they also depend on your arrangement. But the tips in this article might help: (link is only visible to registered users)
So, basically, a drop comes directly after a buildup. The buildup creates tension - the drop releases it. Pretty simple. Ascending tones, increasing the speed of beat, as well as higher frequency passes can all add to the buildup. At the drop, try to release the tension at a single point - a drop out of everything for a small period can be used for this.
I know that this is an older forum, but I'm just trying to help!
