The low-value resistor is for filtering any noise on the
power input to the sensor. It needs to be accompanied by a capacitor to ground at the power pin in order to do any actual filtering.
The five volt power supply from the Robot Controller is pretty clean, and probably doesn't need to be filtered. The RC digital inputs are of low enough impedance that the output signal from the sensor probably doesn't need to be filtered either. Unless you're running the wires from the RC to the sensor in parallel with motor power leads, I wouldn't expect you to have any noise problems.
