Fred Yes, I used turnbuckles but get the ones with a spring locking device, I also have retrospectively glued some felt on the floor in the region of their operation, saves a horrible bang in the very rare event of contact with the floor, all minor direction changes I've run them through appropriate diameter plastic "spirol cable wrap" which if you should ever need to remove them you just uncurl the wrap.(usually positioned alongside a small block of wood fixed by a blob of Redux to the floor. In the rare event (trike) of any water or whatever contamination the spirol wrap is forgiving rather than cause a seize up.

For ease of access, I would be placing them just aft of the removable "D" panel in the baggage bay bulkhead. Would anyone offer a comment or two on this issue? Perhaps I'm overlooking something...

It was helpful for initial setup though.

There is no real tension on the cables, except that provided by the return springs. Just more weight in my book...

Just I used aluminium turnbuckles instead of brass, they are much lighter and don't sweep the bottom of the fuselage. The advantage was shown when I had to replace the forward half of the starboard rudder cable who was damaged by the brake caliper. Wish you good building.
