Default Electronic ignition for unknown engine

Hi,
I picked up about a 40cc(?) engine at a swap meet nobody knew anything about. It is twin cylinder with a nice Walbro carb and electronic ignition. A few people guessed it was RCGF however there is not a single mark on the engine or ignition The question is why would the ignition make what sounds like a warning tone with 4.8 v. NICAD. I got it to kick over a few times but that's it. The thing is does a twin need higher voltage than what I would be used to for a single and the tone is some kind of warning?
Thanks
