Command & Control is given by 915MHz RFD900x modules that transmit and receive telemetry and control link signals. Telemetry is provided by a groundstation computer, but is not necessary for flight. Control link is provided w/a PPM receiver, typically a 2.4ghz receiver paired with a low transmit power module on the radio controller. See Command & Control Center Setup & Configuration for more information on the controller and command station.
