Default Venus 40 empennage controls?

Hello all,

I just got a GP Venus 40 and I have been looking over the instruction manual for it (I'm out of town right now, so I can't work on it until Sunday []). Anyway, I downloaded the manual a while back and was looking it over and I have come to the conclusion that I do not like the elevator push rod set up that they have. Is there something that is relatively cheap that would be a little sturdier than a wheel collar holding the two elevator pushrods?

Also, I was kinda wanting to do a pull-pull rudder set up in this airplane and was wondering if that would be a good idea or not. The pull-pulls on my Hydeout and Carden Cap were both in the airframe when I acquired them, so I don' t know how much of a headache it would be to put that in an airplane this small.

Thanks alot guys!
