You can use just the 1 signal wire if you have a common ground between the IR board and the RC, which we did because we used the same battery to power both devices. This will most likely be the case on your FIRST robot as well.

I'm actually a college student majoring in mechanical engineering, but I do know a bit of electrical stuff, hopefully I explained that well enough.
