I've had the same problem of having a loose set screw at the sprocket rod as well as the (older) rods that extend into the fins. This was solved by placing some "locktight" on the threads= no more loose screws!

There is a flat side on the center of the shaft drive. Is the set screw sitting tight on the flat part of the shaft? make sure it is... here is a video notice the flat part in the center of the shaft.

Had the same thing happen to my drives, couldn't figure out what the issue was until I finally spent time doing a little investigating. Reset the metal rod, tightened the set screw, haven't had any issues since.
