I don't think anyone answered your question.

The answer is YES!

With these things you can have your choice, depending on your setup ($$).

You can download pictures after you land, or have live, in flight live video, either on a seperate device (TV display) or what the call "FPV" First Person Video, where you wear video googles and you get the feeling like you are sitting in the cockpit and flying a full scale plane (or flying like a bird). Search YouTube for the term FPV.

Here is a pretty good video that shows some FPV flying.. at one point you can even see the video googles the pilot is using as he launches his airplane.

Yes, these can be either stills, or live full motion video.
