I think there's more to what you perceive as people out flying you simply due to some sort of magical rudder usage. The reality of the situation is that if are performing moves you cannot, it will have more to do with speed differentials, aircraft handling characteristics, and pilot skill in using ALL his control surfaces effectively in a deliberate and co-ordinated fashion.
The rudder controls the aircrafts yaw. It doesn't make it perform magic moves that no-one else can follow. The rudder is very useful for helping aiming your guns, correcting/catching stalls, co-ordinated turns, skidding, and can help kicking the tail over in a wing-over type move when close to a stall.
Its not just the rudder input, its the pilot who uses, and knows when to use which of all the axis of control at their disposal in the right combinations of amounts to achieve the intended maneuver. Its the pilot who knows which maneuver to fly and when. Its never as simple as just the rudder.
My suggestion is that if you find you are being out-maneuvered, stop and think why for second. Firstly, perhaps your aircraft's physical capabilities wont allow you to match no matter how hard you try. Secondly, speed differentials probably account for most of the ive-been-out-maneuvered situations. If your speed isn't all but identical to your opponent then your turn performance is going to be very different.
Besides, if they're pulling some crazy "up, kick the tail,....down in your face manuever" (as you put it) and its something you cant follow, take comfort from the fact that they just threw away a fistful of E, while you didnt! Advantage, you!
If you have some films, i'd gladly go over them for you if you want. Also, can you describe the "up, kick the tail,....down in your face manuever" a bit more please - sounds like a high-g nose-high reversal like a chandelle or pitchback or something. Does it lead to a HO pass?
