Exclamation Bruder Excavator Conversion Radio Setup Help Needed

I'm currently building a Bruder CAT excavator and have come to the point I'm trying to figure out what radio to go with and how I can get the machine to switch between boom servo's and two drive servo's so I can drive and use the boom and arm. I'm not quite sure how to do it but here is what I'm wanting my stick setup to be like if possible.

Left stick: Swing Left/Right
Left stick: Arm Up/Down
Right stick: Bucket curl Left/Right
Right stick: Boom Up/Down

Switching to track mode

Left stick: Left track drive Up-Forward/Down-Reverse
Right stick: Right track drive Up-Forward/Down-Reverse

I'm not sure how I could mix them to work together with the boom and arm but if I were only able to switch between them it would be fine with me.

Thanks for the help and if anyone needs more information I'll try to come up with what I can.

A quick run down of what all I will be opperating as well.

Two drive servo's (one for each side of tracks)
Two boom servos
One arm servo
One bucket curling servo
Chassis servo for rotation of the cab
Two forward facing boom lights
Two cab top work lights
Two rear red tail lights

Would like to be able to switch the lights on with an accessory switch from the transmitter, possibly all at once or seperate boom lights from cab and tail lights.

I know this is kinda asking alot but any help is greatly appriciated.

Thanks,
~Tyler~
