Default Wing Loading for 3D

Guys,

Is lighter the wing loading the better it is for 3D flight?

I am wanting to scratch build a 3D plane, probly an Extra 330L for the RCS 1.4 engine. If the complete flying weight could be kept below 10lbs and the wing area of 1300 sq", then the wing loading would be about 18oz/sq ft. Is this wing loading good for 3d? or is it too low?

Thanks in advance.

Regards
Marcus
