Most transmitter receivers are at least 4 channels.
Two for drive, one for flip and one for axe so no you only need one set of radio.

i mean that there are only 2 sticks on a rc remote so how can you get 3 things on 2.
drive,flipper,claws?

one stick does drive, stick up and down does one thing, left to right the other

Each stick has 2 axes of motion: up & down and left & right.

Each axis is a channel meaning that you can put the two channels required for drive on one stick and the weapons on the other stick with one weapon assigned to each axis/ channel.
