If the ailerons are tapered they add lift. If the aileron is a flat plank I'd say no lift, just wing area. If the aileron is not in the neutral position, it adds drag to the airfoil... Is drag considered lift?
Do I know for sure? Nope.
I love this hobby...[8D]
Finally!
I just looked at two the of planes I am building, and neither of them have tapered ailerons meaning that they are thinner at the trailing edge furthering the airfoil to the total wing chord.
