Built this last year and added dual rudders. Check out if my build thread helps. Very simple build.

Elevons works both as ailerons and elevator. Fin is required for directional stability. To turn you don't need a rudder unlke a boat. Put on bank and pull the airplane turns

I built another flying wing called KESL, but it was very very agaile and I would not recommend if you are new to flying.

'foamybuilder' on this forum built some great well behaved Flying wing/Delta wingers. Please search his threads.

Title: Flying wing's and their controls
Post by: ajith on August 04, 2011, 05:51:34 PM
Among various models of Flying wings  some  have a  rudder  and some don't ...          

it can  use  its  aileron  as  elevators  ...      so that is not  problem  when we don't have  elevators

but  how  come   does  a flying wing  manage  to turn  without   a vertical  rudder   :headscratch:  

can any one explain about  Pitch  ,  yaw  &  roll    controls  of   a  flying wing ?

seniors  awaiting  your  help . . .

[Moderator Note] Merged with you own topic with same discussion.

Pitch and roll is controlled by elevons.
For turning you roll the wing slightly then pull the elevator.
Yaw is not necessary and is generally absent even if you have a rudder. Achieving yaw control in flying wings is a little complicated.
