Hey Wildcard...
I had a similar experience while flying a scratch fuselage high winger with wings and tail parts from an old RCM Funster I built up as a camera ship. It had flaps, but when the camera was used it operated off the flap channel and they were locked in neurtral. This day I didn't have the camera. Like you, in a rush to fly, I made an error, I hooked the ailerons to the flap plug. No control check either! Once airborne I found I had a problem. Realizing what it was I let it gain altitude. I yelled out and the rest of the guys let me have all the air. Throttling back just above Idle I fed in a tad of Up Trim on the elevator. With some right rudder and some Up elevator I got the right wing tip to drop. Neutral elevator and a jab of left rudder brought it up. OK, then I knew I could fly it down. The great lift capabilities (similar to an LT-40 wing) helped get that 72" cabin job around the pattern, and into a wide flat turn onto final. Going to full idle in a flat descent I just guided it down to a soft T.D. Some of the guys, discovering what had just happened couldn't believe I got it down safetly on rudder only. Years ago we started flying on Rudder and Elevator only, no Throttle or Ailerons, so when my brain went into Rerun I reacted automatically. I didn't mind the pats on the back a bit.
