The ailerons primarily control roll. Whenever lift is increased, induced drag is also increased. When the stick is moved left to bank the aircraft to the left, the right aileron is lowered which increases lift on the right wing and therefore increases induced drag on the right wing. Using ailerons causes adverse yaw, meaning the nose of the aircraft yaws in a direction opposite to the aileron application. When moving the stick to the left to bank the wings, adverse yaw moves the nose of the aircraft to the right. Adverse yaw is more pronounced for light aircraft with long wings, such as gliders. It is counteracted by the pilot with the rudder. Differential ailerons are ailerons which have been rigged such that the downgoing aileron deflects less than the upward-moving one, reducing adverse yaw. [edit]
Rolling to the right

An aileron will cause the space craft to roll
The aileron is usually on the back of the outter wing, on both wings. Moving the controller to the right, causes the right aileron to lift and the left aileron to go down, thus causing the aircraft to roll to the right. and vice versa.
Right Aileron Down is Positive Left Aileron Up is Positive Rudder Left is Positive Elevator Down if Positive The oposites are negative, of course.
An aileron is a hinged part on the trailing edge of an airplane's wing, used to control lateral turns.
Ailerons allow the airplane to make barrels rolls. If the left aileron is down, and the right aileron is up, then the plane will do a barrel roll towards the left. If the left aileron is down, and the right aileron is down then the plane will do a barrel roll towards the right.
