RD Engine ID42 is
- A 12.8 cc engine.
- Air cooled.
- Has a shaft valve mechanism to regulate fuel inflow.
- Four individual carburettors for each cylinder, thus improving performance and with increased throttle response.
- Each carburettor has a fuel setting needle to change the richness of fuel entering each cylinder. All the carburettors are interlinked thus allowing all the cylinders to fire in unison.
