Default Not wanting to use control sticks

I have seen a complete yoke set up from a TriPacer installed in a
Christavia. It appeared to be straight forward and less difficult than dual
sticks.

Well, here I go again, thinking instead of doing.
My plane call for control sticks just like 99% of the homebuilts out
there. But I've been considering using a control yoke (maybe cessna 150
modified) instead. To get from the yoke controls
to the push/pull tubes in the wing I may have to use Bowden cables. I
may be wrong on the name, but basicly similar to bicycle brake cables.
Has anyone used these kind of cables successfuly?
Or has anyone incorporated a control yoke instead of control sticks?
