Default RE: wing loading too high?

Meeko - my pal flew one with the MVVS160 gasser ... was a little under powered, was enough to fly and a little hairy to do any good manouvers but it was not that hard to fly. I am sure you will be fine, if you are feeling a little edgy then use 2 channels for ailerons and then set flaps function for landing. Now let the flaps move the ailerons UP and NOT down. Let it go up about 1/8", this will create some washout and give you some additional margin before the plane will tip stall. Its your safety net while you get used to the plane for landing. Try it.
