rs232 signal over wireless connection



Hi,

Im working on a UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) project at uni and
would
like to control some servos using the serial output from simulink at
a
ground station computer.


Last week in conversation somebody told me that they would put a PWM
signal through a standard remote controlled aircraft handset. I know
that I need an rs232 servo controller in between the servos and the
aerial, but what do i need between the antenna and the controller
board? It looks to me like all the servo controller boards need a 9
pin serial input.


My question is what equipment do I need to input to the 9 pin board
from the antenna output? Is there a certain type of antenna that does
this straight off?


Sorry if my questions sound silly, I am not an electrical engineer.

I hope this isn't off topic, I thought that somebody in this group
might have tried it before.


Thanks very much for any help offered


Adam
