I saw the upturned wingtips and assumed the plane didn't have ailerons. My mistake. I'm glad you figured out your problem. Do still consider an Ugly Stick when you're ready to fly something nicer. Everybody, including myself, who's gone from a trainer to a stick has been surprised at how easy flying is with one. It's like the wind shuts off just by changing planes. Lots of pilots whose skills are far beyond sport planes still keep one around to play in the wind with because you just don't have to do that much to make them fly well.
