There are a few birds out there that are using twisting or rolling wings for the roll Control.

There are birds like the ULX from Argentina,the Spratt103, the Mistral of Aviasud (biplane), the Scoutchel,Demoichel,Cubchel, Dragon of APEV (Daniel Dalby),

They have all in common that they have at least a pair of upper wings for this type of roll control.

If we would take the size and design of the later birds of Fritz, the Ranger to name it, how could such a rolling or twisting wing be implemented into a low wing aircraft?

Even the Elevator could be mixed with this kind of wing….
