your best bet is probably going to be a servo for each aileron sharing power and signal.
although it looks like you used the stock kit dihedral which is going to make those ailerons really insensitive. its going to want to turn with rudder more than ailerons. |

An AS2000 in each wing isn't the cheapest, but is the best solution.
Those wings are thick enough that they will be buried in there and nearly un-noticeable. HK 1.7g linear servos would be a very distant second choice and a choice I wouldn't make any more based on their recent failure rate with me. |

You don't necessarily have to remove all of the dihedral. dihedral adds stability in roll so having a little would be okay, but having none would give the most control and reduce roll/yaw coupling.
I guess it would depend on how you want to fly it, like a fighter or like a floater

Good logic derk.
Today most of us are caught in the " UP THE POWER & STUNTS " routine with every slower scale plane. There are Piper L4s going straight up, out of sight, almost as fast as a f-15.
Why build a beautiful scale & fold the wings up doing high G moves. Fast planes crash harder. Slow planes fly over them & drop a wreath in rememberance. |
