Camillo,
<<I'm now worried for the thread problem.>>
Don't worry. I only mentioned the strength reduction issue to clarify what happens when you weld a heat-treated part.
Builders can often eliminate worry by spending a few moments with a calculator. First think about the applied load, then calculate strength.
Alex is probably right; aileron pushrod load is probably low. However, do consider the worst case. For example, the typical inflight elevator pushrod loads are also quite low, but the typical case isn't the worst case. The elevator stops are at the control horn. The worst case would be a panic-pull on the stick with the elevator against the up stop. Likewise, rudder controls shouldn't be sized for just the inflight rudder deflection load. The worst case is a panic push with both feet at the same time. You need to assign a value to the worst case; perhaps 400 lbs divided by two cables would be appropriate for the rudder example. The common sense question would be "how hard you can push with your feet?"
As for strength, just work your way through the system calculating and looking for the weak link. Don't forget the anchor points. In particular check long pushrods for failure due to bowing and buckling in compression.
Here we can cheerfully assume the engineers at Van's did all that, and our only concern is the welded AN490. Assume 50,000 psi yield for annealed condition after welding. The root diameter of the 1/4-28 thread is about 0.2 inch. So, 0.1^2 x 3.14 x 50,000 = 1570 lbs load capacity. Pretty safe if you think actual load is about 100 lbs, yes?
Bored today; when we have sleet in south Alabama, not much happens here at the store <g>
