Well said CS. but it is not only Robinson that has the theme it was the customers fault, so they pay
The other problem with most IC engined helios is the basic engine was designed 60 +years ago and we expect a higher reliability, how do you over rev a modern motor under 5000 rpm, & as for the oil consumption the problem is cost of certification of a new design, this has led to no one designing\or even radically redesigning a more cost effective unit
