Cool FPV setup.
This is a cool video and writeup I found on Adafruit.com:
"A micro camera is installed onboard an r/c plane F-16. The camera transmit live the video to ground and I wear video goggle to fly the plane in real time like if I was in the cockpit. The camera replace the head of the pilot and the movement of the cam is control by the movement of my head on ground via a head mount gyroscope (head tracker)
The whole system cost me around $1500 including the plane. But it is many hours of hand made modifcation. You can start with simpler video system that cost around $500 and install it on your own r/c plane. Search for FPV on the web for more info about my hobby…"

What's more "real" than video overlay? Seeing the onboard instruments (well, instrument) in the FPV..

That vid is by VRFlyer (Denis)
He used to have alot more videos posted, but I think the upcoming govt restrictions may have made alot of people more circumspect about what videos go public.
The most famous of his is this one of posted by others:
