You are right too.
In some manuals they still have the Amsoil recommendation, and have not changed the manual yet. However, "wood-is-good" posted about their changed recommendation due to problems they encountered with the 1:100 mix.
I quote from the DA85 manual;
After the break-in process, we recommend a high quality synthetic oil. As for brand of oil,
there are many good ones on the market. Some oils, and their mix ratios, that Desert Aircraft
recommends are: Red-line Two Stroke Racing Oil (40 to 1), Motul 800 (50 to 1), and Stihl HP
Ultra (50 to 1). These oils can be found at most motorcycle or chainsaw shops.

Used to say amsoil. certainly not at 1:100
Correct again P.E, I stand corrected, they reccomend amsoil at 100-1 or Belray at 50-1
at the top right you can download the manual, page 4 has the oil section.

I don't really care what oil people use,I justthought it was unusual how the two DAbranches had completely different opinions
