Default Rolling circle

Thanks Guys, I'm making progress already. I read the thread from a while back. The subject of rolling circles was covered very well. here's what I'm doing.

First I practiced doing perfect slow rolls, one right after the other, then I started using up elevator while the wings are verticle to make the turn. I'm not using down elevator when the wings are verticle on the other side, In other words I'm only imputting a turn command via up eleavator once every 360 deg. is this a mistake? Also I'm only using the rudder to keep the plane level. does this sound correct?
