Lack of ability in tuning two strokes will plague you regardless of brand or country of origin.
I've read these DL vs DL threads for awhile now and as certain as death and taxes you will here from the same few (but vocal) DL worshippers. If I've heard JoeAirports slant on his DA50 once I've read it a thousand times (sometimes all in the same thread).

Sure it's worth the extra cash. For your extra coin, your getting that nasty sounding midrange burble/miss that the DA 50 is known for. Putting a DL reed cage in the DA helps the problem.

spend the money for the DA. Why? Customer service. I sent mine in for an inspection as I bought it used. They basically did a complete overhaul of the engine including carb for 135 bucks shipped. You aint gonna beat that.
Something goes wrong, they are where you want to be.

I've only got around 3/4 a gallon run through my DLE-55 and the thing is already a monster. Not nearly broken yet, the 55 punches my 16 pound OMP Yak out of a hover like it has rockets on it.
Very little vibration, ultra quick throttle response. Can't give you a long term review, but so far my DLE starts easier, sounds better and has more power than any DA-50 at my field. 22x8 PT Model CF prop, 32:1 Lawn Boy ashless.
