Both linear rods in the J5 assembly are sliding out and in when the J5 motor is activated. I have used the set screws and loctite, but the motor seems like its too powerful and breaks the bond. Has anyone had this problem or a solution to it?

Make sure that the linear rod is pushed in far enough so that the set screw actually bites onto it.

@johann-voigtlander It was, and I had tightened it super tight, but still slipped. I put some bearing compound on it and that fixed it so far.
