throttle stops it hitting the floor, or climbing.. kinda obvisious really.. with elevons as big as they are you can get away without the rudder to a degree.. if it starts to fall out you use a blip of throttle to strighten it out again.

The throttle keeps you pointing up. You modulate it to stay in the place. Use your elevon to keep your nose pointed in the right direction. The best way to answer these questions is just to pull up in a hover. Good luck.
