I realize both end when the shot by A1 is released. I realize that if A2 catches the ball that both PC and TC are established. But what about on a tip? I'm guessing neither PC or TC, but can't find a rules reference.

I assume you mean "tap," since the word "tip" does not appear in the rule book.
By rule, player control occurs when a player is holding or dribbling the ball. Based on that definition, there is no player control during a tap.
However, an airborne shooter is a player who has
released the ball on a try for a goal or has tapped the ball and has not returned to the floor. If an airborne shooter fouls, it is a player control foul.
So no, there is no player control on a tap. But yes, it is a player control foul if he fouls after the tap, before he returns to the floor.
There is no team control during a tap if team control did not exist prior to the tap.
