Rotary's are able to be significantly smaller but put out a ton of HP. With that being said, they are extremely unreliable, usually have oil leaks and other problems, they are also quite tidious to tend for.

Rotaries aren't "extremely unreliable", they just require more maintenance in order to stay reliable.
