A litre in 3 hrs is about average. A newer engine can burn faster but as they bed in the burn rate goes down.

You still need to complete an oil change at 25 or 50hrs (no filter/ with filter).

Even with top up on an unfilterted engine at 25hrs it's quite dirty and it is a requirement for the machine to be changed at those intervals.
