Live Camera on R/C Jet?

I want to mount a small camera to an R/C jet and have a live feed coming back to a monitor in order to have even more control of the plane as well as to fly it at further distances. How exactly would I accomplish this?

    Check out rcuniverse.com , rcgroups.com and go to the aerial photography forums. Lots of info there. Also check blackwidowav.com , rangevideo.com , and iftrontech.com for the actual equipment. Essentially what you are going to need is a reciever that is on the ground hooked up to a monitor, a transmitter on the aircraft that sends the signal from the onboard camera, which there are several types that you will find on these websites. BTW, the term for that type of R/C flying is FPV, which stands for Forward Point of View or sometimes referred to as First Person View.

    Yes, I am more than aware of the Objects caught in Infrared by the Mexican AF, heck they were using our old jets and you can bet your behind those instruments were functioning perfectly! Although have you heard of the Soviet AF (Air Force) sighting, with a MIG-21 and a Cylindrical Space Ship? It is very obvious. Just click on the source link below to watch the video.
