Simple cylinder with 2 bones deforms differently in Armory than Blender

[Bugsbane]

Take a look at how the cylinder (left) bends in Blender, maintaining it's length and width:

Then look at how the same cylinder in the same file bends in Armory:

This is using:
Kubuntu 18.10 64 bit
Armory 0.6 beta and git versions ( a6c954cda7ca429e3887069100e11ba5441b88c9 )
Blender 2.8 beta
Both krom and browser target (FF and Chromium)

Original test file:
wiggle-cylinder.3.zip
(trigger bend animation with space bar)

Is there any further info I can supply that would help? This issue still persists in a just updated git version today ( Armory v2019.7 - 817bd37d712a58bf387b7808cccc5ae19cf6f534 )

I don't know why the deformation is happening in your case, but Armory does not export the current object pose from Blender. You need to create a single frame and stash it into the armature and play it on init:

I can see cases when this would be useful and some of them can be reached by applying the armature modifier in the object (this way it will keep in the pose forever like it was modeled in this way), but anyway this is a destructive method.
