Heres the part:
DJI Phantom 3 STANDARD Gimbal Ribbon Cable
I have bought many from F/Stop and every one has been reliable, unlike some eBay vendors who sell their own brand that never seem to work.

I'm pretty sure that what others recommend is to purchase the pitch motor which has a longer shaft, then shorten the shaft to the required length.

Cheers for the replies guys the cheaper option is buying a pitch motor and cutting the shaft down has anybody tried this and does it work

My recommendation was not from personal experience, but rather from reading here last year. Another user posted that other than shaft length, there was no difference between roll and pitch motors, and that he/she had simply cut the shaft using a Dremel cut-off wheel.
I would recommend though that using the Dremel cut-off wheel can created a lot of heat so do it little bits at a time, allowing time for the shaft to cool, and probably lock a good heating to the end of the shaft being removed to help absorb some of the heat.
