I think that is backwards. You want the drag on the downward wing, on the inside of the turn. More deflection, more drag. Is that not right?

The increased lift of the wing, increases drag on that wing which produces adverse yaw. So to counter this, aileron controls can be designed to increase the deflection on the downward moving wing aileron more than the upward moving wing - the up-moving aileron goes up 30? while to down moving aileron travels down 20?.
