Without a tail, flying wings need significant wing flight control surfaces on the trailing edge to control the pitch. Look at the puny ailerons on the Iranian fake. Look at the ailerons on der Luftwaffe Ho V, verstehen?

The RQ170 might have; Elevons, Flaps for Landings and Drag / Split Ailerons some for role control but more for drag on landing. Just like the B-2 and F117, But the Iranians pulled up some spoilers too....
