Pull Pull versus pushrod on rudder.
 
Hi
Just wondering what the benifits are of useing a pull pull system on the rudder versus a pushrod. I'm talking in the sport type aircraft, 40, 60, 91 etc.

Thanks fellow fliers

Pull Pull versus pushrod on rudder.
 
Very simple to set up.
No large masses vibrating around in flight.

Pull Pull versus pushrod on rudder.
 
When a cable is pulled, there is no chance of any lost motion due to pushrod flexing. (Assuming you are using good quality no stretch cable). A pushrod is subject to some flexing if not done just right. A good cable set up is lighter, too. Centering should be more accurate as the control surface is pulled back to neutral.
