A few people have asked for a video showing the wiring of the servo tester to gimbal tilt channel, these servo testers are all over ebay for a couple of dollars search "servo tester".
You will also need a male to male servo cable, these are very common and often come with the gimbals.
The most important thing is to check the labelling on servo tester it will have S or a sqiqggle for signal, + for positive, - for negative, the white or orange wire on cable goes to Signal - be very careful not to plug the cable in across the connections (ie across all three - pins) as this will short out the gimbal controller causing damage.
The gimbal side has two columns of three pins, one column will be tilt control, the other roll, and signal wire is labelled on the instruction sheet for mine it was furthest from the board, if you get this the wrong way round its harmless, as you will connect signal to ground, so gimbal won't respond to servo tester, but no damage will occur.
Hope this is useful.
You can get these cheap 2 axis brushless gimbals for gopro or similar all over the place, from ebay etc, so I suggest you search for the cheapest seller in your country, but this one came from here:
