  The Handley Page O/400 had two Rolls-Royce engines, not four. The four-engine Handley Page was the V/1500, an even more gigantic aircraft. (Incidentally, in the type designation O/400, the character before the slash is a capital letter O. Handley Page used letters to designate its early types, and the O/400 was a version of the Type O. It's extremely common for sources to use a zero instead, but still incorrect.)
