No, not wing loading, it is wing volume loading that you need to keep the same. The attached graph show this. Keep the ''Wing Volume Loading'' the same for each size and the flight characteristics will be similar.
Does wing volume loading take into account the fact that you can't scale down air molecules or gravity..?
