Default RE: Elavons.

I doubt you'll find that it works well enough even for trainer like manuevering.

A guy built a very low aspect ration flat foamy biplane using elevators that were at least 1/2 the span of the wing. Pitch was fine but the rolling was abysmal according to him. Despite the stabilizer being more than 1/2 span there wasn't enough roll authourity.
