Wing loading of 6m wing

Hi Experts,
I am new to manufacturing of RC plane. I have searched a-lot on internet but haven't found the answer of my question yet.
Finally i decided to post my problem here.

I am making RC plane with wing span of 6m.
the wing loading which i calculate seems too high.
so i want to know that what should be the wing loading for 6m long wing ?
and what value of wing loading will be good and what will be bad?
is there any range of wing loading? so that one can predict that this wing loading is good or bad.

Waiting for your reply,
Regards,
AeroAstro

Now, that will depend on what you are going to do with the model. The actual process to determine loads for building the structure are a bit more complicated than this but, to start off, pick a suitable g-load and multiply the model weight by that factor and that will be a reasonable point from which to start the thinking process.

The span isn't a determining consideration for the load but is for the structural design to accommodate the load .. for interest, what load did you come up with ?

Does aeroastro66 mean wing-loading in kg/m2 or is calculating wing-root bending moment the aim?
