Default 100cc Slick 540

Now why does Dietrich Performance Aircraft not make a 35% slick or for that matter any 100 cc class planes? I would think that a 35% slick would sell and sell better than any 300, yak or edge.

They have a brand new Extra 300 in a 100cc. Looks nice!

Has the wing seperation issue been resolved on the Slick yet? Not bashing...just remember hearing/seeing quite a few problems. I'm asking because I think its a sweet plane and would like one to replace my 40% Yak one day.

3DHS makes a badass 50cc slick and 150cc slick. I'd be holding my breath for them to come out with a 100cc version first.

It is really more of a 170-200cc Slick at 45 lbs with a 170. It is absolutely enormous. 100cc would be cool. Seems likely eventually, as does a 100cc from Dietrich. That is still my favorite sized airplane.
