Some people have tried fitting ailerons but that undercambered foam wing is a real hindrance to designing fully functional moving surfaces. Why not just get a decent aileron-fitted kit (Mountain Models?) and save time and energy.

See the "slowstick ailerons" thread further down the page.

I got my ideas from this site before I modified mine. It worked ok, but you really had to be on the elevator when you used the ailerons as it had a tendancy to drop like a brick.
