First the good news i managed to locate the raider and have removed the shaft and measured it at 7cms the pic is below. to be honest they are pretty rubbish plastic jobbies typical for an entry level kit so if you plan on putting a better motor in it may be worth upgrading to all metal ones anyway. you should pick them up cheaply on ebay? pic below of the original item:
