RE: wing loading
The rule of thumb for sixty size planes was 100sq/lb. That has shrunk a little with the 2m birds to 90 to 95 sq. So conversely, 105 to 110 sq/lb might be a good goal.? Hope that helps.

RE: wing loading
Here's what i'm looking at. I have a ax.46. The planes are the venus with a 19.5 w/l and a f3a 50 with a 23 oz. w/l. The venus looks like the best choice. The f3a 50 is a really nice looking plane but, if its to heavy it will be a flying manhole cover.
