You used the elevator as a rudder.

Hi Dale,

I have flown my airplane at 90 degrees AOB without turning.  Can you explain how that happened?

I don't care to have to join to take the poll but my answer is ailerons.
The airplane turns because it is banked. The elevator is used to add
lift as the vertical component changes. The rudder is to keep the tail
coordinated behind the nose.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it ...
