Does anyone know if the carb from a vertex-16 engine will fit on the 3.0cc SH 18 engine? I want the SH engine but my electronics are in the wrong place for the slide carb on it.

I did see an old Rc 10 with a slide barrel carb. not too long ago ,it was on E-bay ,so I think it maybe
adapted with a little tweak on the linkage arm!

Servo is in the wrong place for me to utilize the slide carb, but the seller traded out carbs for me. It's shipped I'm good to go in 3-7 days. What a fun hobby!!!
 
You replacing a rotary carb engine with a slide carb engine?

If not, I'm assuming you know the carb twists and can be mounted in either direction.

But if your trying to fit a slide when the geometry calls for a rotary, that can be a pain to overcome.
