Hi,

Does anyone here have any information on how to choose a suitable size for
a driveshaft?

I've Googled it but can't seem to find anything suitable.....

You need to look at the specs for whatever material you're using, and then
do some calculations.
Try googling for Module of Elasticity (Youngs Modulus? - it's been a while
since I used it), which is a measurement of how much a material will deform,
before becoming permanently deformed. Then with a few calculations, decide
on a safety factor, and you can then look at sizes/different materials

But I'm sure some of the more experienced posters here will probably be able
to quote the relevant details better than I can.
