What parts helps the aeroplanes control?

Thereare three main control surfaces on an airplane, and these control the three axis of the plane. The ailerons are out on the wings and they control roll. The rudder is on the vertical stabilizer (the tail) and that controls the yaw of the airplane. Finally you have the elevators which are on the horizontal stabilizers of the airplane. the elevators control pitch. (nose up or down)
