Part 15 licensing of my product needed?
(OP)
If I offered my product as "radio control ready" but didn't actually sell the RF control would my product need to be licensed? To operate my product I only need two NO relays from the RC control. I would provide the interface cables but not the RC unit. I'd like to list particular controls as a recommendation for my customers.

Most anything with modern electronics needs to be inspected, tested and certified by a national regulator (e.g. FCC, IC, etc.) approved lab to ensure it meets the applicable requirements.
This isn't exactly my area, so hopefully the above is accurate.
RE: Part 15 licensing of my product needed?
From what I've read so far it's a fuzzy area. I believe that supplying an interface cable to be used between the "approved" receiver and my product might require my product to be certified. I also think that by calling my product a radio controlled device I might need to have my product tested as a non-intentional radiator.

The requirement and process apparently even applies to unintentional emitters such as receivers.

I'll take a look at "FCC Declaration of Conformity"

If you are using a radio transmitter in your product then you need to be tested against FCC Part 15 limits for an intentional radiator and get your system certified.
A radio manufacturer claiming they meet FCC requirements is only stating that their device passes, so there is a high probability that you can implement it in your system without issues.
