Been chasing down a vibe in my Avant FX for a while never suspected the main shaft because it was a new kit and it hasnt been crashed.Took it out to the field today with another set of blades to try but it did the same thing. did a runout on the shaft and it is bent even visibly bent with the dial indicator.Was there a problem with the shafts or is it possible for it to get bent in flight?

Never had a problem like that reported to us.
Did you dial indicate it with the center hub or did you take it out all by itself? The reason I ask is because what's usually bent is the center hub and replacing the main shaft won't fix the problem.
PM me for instructions on replacements.

dialed it with no head installed just the shaft. Took off the xspec head installed a evo90 head with same results.
