Radha, Heir to Keld

508.1. First, the active player declares attackers. This turn-based action doesn't use the stack. To declare attackers, the active player follows the steps below, in order. (...)
508.1a. The active player chooses which creatures that he or she controls, if any, will attack. The chosen creatures must be untapped, and each one must either have haste or have been controlled by the active player continuously since the turn began.
508.1b. If the defending player controls any planeswalkers, or the game allows the active player to attack multiple other players, the active player announces which player or planeswalker each of the chosen creatures is attacking.
508.1j. Each chosen creature still controlled by the active player becomes an attacking creature. It remains an attacking creature until it's removed from combat or the combat phase ends, whichever comes first. See rule 506.4.
508.2. Second, any abilities that triggered on attackers being declared go on the stack. (See rule 603, "Handling Triggered Abilities.")

In my understanding I can tap her in response to the 508.2 step and get RRG out of her?

It shouldn't even remove it from combat hence
"506.4b Tapping or untapping a creature that's already been declared as an attacker or blocker doesn't remove it from combat and doesn't prevent its combat damage."

On the other hand you cant attack with a pinger and ping...
So how does this exactly work?

You've missed rule 508.1f: The active player taps the chosen creatures. Tapping a creature when it's declared as an attacker isn't a cost; attacking simply causes creatures to become tapped.

You can't activate abilities in between all these things.

You don't get priority until: "508.3. Third, the active player gets priority. Players may cast spells and activate abilities."

If she has vigilance (and doesn't require tapping to attack), sure - otherwise not so much.
