Understood. My question (as muddy as it was) was about why does the application of rudder cause the airplane to roll as opposed to pitch up (following the movement along the axes seen in adverse yaw). I was thinking that folks that fly knife edge (with symmetrical and unsymmetrical airfoils) could shed some light on what happens in pitch when top and bottom rudder is applied (mimicking aileron movement in normal level flight).

Good advice!
Thanks, Randy!
