I did this for motor control on my fishery cruiser, it's a simple job.
Each motor has its own speed controller and these are connected to the RX to give 'tank steering' on the TX sticks.
A r/c latching switch is used to toggle the signal wire of the right hand ESC between its usual position and sharing the signal from the left hand ESC. (obviously this means cutting the wire to provide the alternative connections.)
The latching switch is operated from the undercarriage switch on the TX so by flicking the undercarriage switch you can either run the motors in tank steering mode or both together from the left hand stick.
The rudder continues to operate independently.
These days a mixer is usually a better solution as it incorporates rudder input and makes handling easier. There are various mixing mode options, see the specs on the Action mixers on the Component shop website.
f you are doing something different then the same principles apply. Use the switch to toggle between grouped and independent RX outputs.
Some people have been able to use the inbuilt mixing functions on upmarket TXs but this can be fiddly to set up and can involve reassigning channels to alternative TX controls.
