Drag rudders are very useful for yaw stabilization on flying wings. Especially for anyone who is trying to design a flying wing with no vertical fins. I decided to design controller that's totally dedicated to controlling drag rudders. The following video shows the drag rudders in operation.

I've always been fascinated with the Horten brothers flying wing designs and their Bell Lift Distribution wing design..
Using X-plane Planemaker and XFLR5 analysis software has helped in determining the right amount of wing twist.
I also developed an Arduino controlled drag rudder system to help stabilize a flying wing .
Ultimately , I want to end up with an efficient flying wing that has no vertical stabilizers.
