A pair of ducted fans can steer.
Is there a single component that allows you to control the balance for turns and their speed?
Do you you use 2 channels of your transmitter/receiver?

How do you control a pair of ducted fans (or dual props) to steer, etc?

It's called a mixer. You can get them as separate circuits that go between your receiver and speed control, or you can get a transmitter that has mixing (make sure it has the kind you want).
You need two channels -- throttle and rudder, probably.

No rudder proposed.
Steering entirely by throttle.
This is a very slow utility barge.
Does this cahnge anything?

No. You want to control two independent things -- speed and differential speed, or speed 1 and speed 2. Either way you need two channels.
If you want the side-side movement of a stick on the transmitter to translate into differential speed, you'll want to use the rudder channel (assuming you have ailerons).
