I don't use any rudder at all when performning barrel rolls in IL-2. Make sure you fly straight and level with decent air speed. Roll either left or right by moving the stick accordingly and hold it that way. When the plane gets into upside down position: compensate altitude change by gently moving the stick forward (downward movement, but since your flying upside down it will be opposite).
Voilá, you should have performed a good barrel roll and see the Ace of Spades on screen.
The in-game Encyclopedia is actually a pretty good resource for the aerobatic stunts. You find it under
Profile ->
Encyclopedia ->
Stunts. If you press and hold X button (on 360 - don't know how it works on PS3) you remove the on-screen text so that you can see the actual flight maneuvers from different angles.
