An assembly is provided for an aircraft. This assembly includes a propulsion system and a control system. The propulsion system includes an open propulsor rotor and a turbine engine configured to drive rotation of the open propulsor rotor about an axis. The control system includes a first sensor, a second sensor and a controller in signal communication with the first sensor and the second sensor. The first sensor is configured to provide first sensor data indicative of a first environmental parameter. The second sensor is mounted to the propulsion system and is configured to provide second sensor data indicative of a second environmental parameter. The controller is configured to monitor and/or control operation of the propulsion system using the first sensor data. The controller is also configured to monitor the first sensor data using the second sensor data.
