I'm currently in the process of putting an RCMK in my Rio. It's basically your preference if you want to go with the older, known good engine (zenoah) or the newer, could be better, could be worse, RCMK. I think the RCMK will eventually replace the Zen like the zen did to the homelite.

A guy at the pond tonight had a rio with the warehouse hobbies M5 in it. It ran REALLYWELL! There was also a Rio there with a Quickdraw and that boat needed wings!</p>
