Default special considerations for high altitude?

When I was a kid, the K Mart variety .049 powered control line planes didn't make enough power to stay in the air here in Denver. I always assumed they would at sea level.
Now, a few decades later I want to try electric powered planes. Power is no longer an issue, but should I look for a certain airfoil or stay under a maximum wing loading figure?
Thanks..............
