It was originally designed as a free-flight airplane. So far, it has turned out to be challenging on takeoffs due to the main gear placed far forward of the center of gravity and yaw-roll coupling of the polyhedral wing. It is sensitive to rudder inputs in flight. If you were going to add ailerons, you might want to make the wing dihedral instead of polyhedral, reduce the angle of the outboard wing panels to match the inboard panels. Good luck and send me your video when you get flying.
Is that the airfield by Lake Mead?
