I made mine with direct cable and no slack with a 4" solid wheel. Why? It was simple and I didn't want to waste my time overthinking it. I get postive, direct control on the ground like it's steering on rails. It can be twitchy on takeoff and landing in a crosswind if you are lazy. Once I got used to my airplane and how it reacts to wind, it is a non-event. I made my first flight with only 6 hours of tailwheel time. After 100 hours, I'm still here. Moral of the story, build whatever you decide and get it flying. You will adapt to whatever system you choose.
