Need help with programming and connecting my rc remote control to Aduino

Projects Programming

I am in deep water when it comes to programming Aduino

I have illustrated in the attached picture how I think the wires should be connected and the movement pattern I want

I want the Arduino to do the following:

when I activate channel 1 on the remote control, a snake movement sequence for all servos starts, the speed of the motion must be depending on the position of the control stick 1 on the remote control.

to turn right or left, I activate channel 2 where the servo one turns to the right or left according to the position of the control stick two on the remote control. the last 2 servos continues the snake motion sequence

I want the Arduino to do the following:

You should settle, initially, for determining that you get one value when channel 1 is activated, and another when it is not.

When that works, add a check for a value for channel 2.

Then, it is up to you to determine how to move the servos to create "a snake-like movement".

Thanks for the reply

I've googled a bit and found a sketch that makes the movement I want.
Is there a kind soul who can tell me how I get it adjusted so that I can activate it via an RC remote control
Thanks in advance

Here is the code
