Is there a computer program or an equation that will calculate wing loading?

A Mr. Weaver at Magellan R/C products calculated the Sig Senorita for me to equip it for electrics. He may be able to help you. He has been very helpful to me in explaining the lithium metal battery technology...and has some nice stuff too. His web site is http://www.magtechinc.net/

Why don't you calculate it yourself. First, you take the weight of the plane, and how many square feet of wing area it has Then you divide the weight by the number of square feet to get your wing loading, example-

Weight- 5.0 oz
Square ft- 2.0
two divided by five is 2.5, which is your wingloading. Have fun and happy flying, Paul Penney
