Default chinese engines

I think I'm done with Chinese made engines, I just bought a NIB DLE 35RA does not run worth a damn, looking it up on the net it either has a Ign. module problem, a reed problem, a carb problem, possibly even a ring problem. All I know is it won't rev up past 4000RPM, the high end needle is totally useless, I even had the needle shut and the engine continued to run, running Klotz 40-1 19x8 xoar. I own, DA's, Brisons, 3W's, BME's, Zenoahs and a D&B, all ran phenomenal right out of the box and everyone is over 10 years old with nothing more than carb rebuilds on them. It just isn't worth the savings, 350.00 for an engine with instant issues, I'll spend the extra 100-150 next time.
BTW! I don't want to hear who's got one that runs great, I really don't care and good luck to you.
CRRC's Venom 45's, RCFG's I've had them also one after the other "they suck" if you've got one that runs? good for you.
Well that's my rant
