I would suggest that the rolling shown on the animation had less to do with aileron, and more to do with the pilot's ruddering. He was pulling on the yoke against the pusher, (A seventy pound threshold), and in my opinion was misusing his feet to gain purchase in his 'tug of war' with the a/c safety system.
