Well, how about a range of wing loading for 3D?
11oz foamy 3D at 380 sq in (2.64 sf) = 4.17 oz/sf
to
17 lb, 50cc class, scale aerobat, at 1365 sq in (9.48 sf) = 28.69 oz/sf
to
38 lb, 40% class, at 2400 sq in ?? (16.66 sf) = 36.48 oz/sf
anyone know what that 70% Staudacher weighs? and wing area?
Power: a little is ok, more is better, too much is just right!

That one? 350 lbs. dry. [X(]
I think the AMA would frown on that one at a sanctioned flyin.
