The owner installed a micro camera onboard his r/c plane F-16. The camera transmits live the video to the ground and as he wears video goggles he can fly the plane in real time like if he were in the cockpit. The camera replaces the head of the pilot and the movement of the cam is control by the movement of his head on ground via a head mount gyroscope (head tracker).
