radio control (RC)

Radio control (RC) refers to the use of wireless signals to remotely operate devices such as model cars, planes, or drones. An RC transmitter (like a handheld remote) sends encoded radio signals to a receiver onboard the device. The receiver interprets these signals to control motors, servos, or other components, allowing the user to steer, accelerate, or perform specific functions. This technology enables precise, real-time control over the device’s movements without physical connections, making it popular for hobbies, training simulations, and even certain industrial applications.
