Default Pull-Pull Control

I have a 40 size model that I'm building and because of compartment space, am considering using pull-pull control for the rudder/elevator. Never used this method so there are a lot of ????, eh? I do understand that the control horns (on top and bottom) must be mounted mirror image on the respective control surface, but..........

1. Do the control cables on each side have to be the same re:length or is this not critical?

2. Any restriction (or advice) on routing the cables, ie, no sharp bends, bushing material, etc.

3. Is it a desireable modification (pro/con)

Again, thanks in advance.......
