the drag i mentions is still created no matter what orientation the plane is in. As long as it's rolling it'll be getting the drag that causes the yaw... some aerobatic planes won't need aileron diff. keep in mind though the wing is fully symmetrical the plane is not. You have the canopy and the rudder also creating drag.
I'll see if i can get one of our IMAC HQ guys to hop in here and explain this a little better.
