What are Push pull linkages?

Push-pull linkages are where control inputs to a lever are applied to both end of the lever. For example, on an R/C airplane a rod from the servo connects to the lever controlling the rudder. When the servo turns the rod pushes or pulls the lever in one direction. With push-pull linkages, two rods act on the lever so when one rod is pushing, the other is pulling. This maximizes the effect of the servo by applying its power to both ends of the lever.
