Default RE: WING LOADING????????

Colorado flyer. You may have some real concerns flying on a hot, dry and high elevation.

Air density reduction of the prop and wing can gang up on you.

A good local modeler in you area can fill you in on the losses compared to sea level and 70 F.

Take it off on a long paved road the first time. Use a safety spotter.

Do not hand launch a questionable flyer the first time.
