Default Axial roll, barrel roll,???roll.

I'm writing my first freestyle program and would like to define all the rolls for the purpose of being able to write everything down.Axial would be a roll with the fuse staying on the imaginary string. A barrel roll would have the fuse corkscrewing. Are there any other names for rolls?? I am planning on using a roll with intentional rudder to throw the tail out but don't know if there is a specific name for it or not.

Snap roll.

Or a Flip or sometimes call a Tumble.

It depends on the elevator used or the direction of the rudder.

2, 4 & 8 point rolls, stutter rolls (similar but with a lot more points), and the combination rolls while doing other manuevers, rolling circles & rolling loops, wih differnent numbers if inside/outside rolls while doing the loop/circle, and lastly, the 3D high alpha roll.

I am not using any elevator and would not think of it as a snap roll. Rudder is in the same direction as the roll,(aileron)

...and the mother of them all, the slow roll.
That'll earn you a few down grades and laughs in the program.

.. you could compensate for that with a well executed, low level rolling harrier...
If not the balsa dust will give you a clear indication that it's time to change aeroplane.
