I can run it through some tests tomorrow but I guess I'm still a little skeptical that this issue would only crop up now, after our other changes. How much deflection in the end of the shaft are you expecting? All the mounts for the motor are still as solid as ever.

Actually theres another trick you can do to extend a VP shaft. If you get some 1/2 round stock with a 1/4 inch hole, like the vex round tubing, you can screw that into the end of the VP shaft with a 1/4-20 bolt, and then put the round stock through some tubing and a bearing. As long as you get the bolt tight, it will have plenty of support.
