yeah, pratically all serious rc/aerial vid guys use video downlinks… but they’re usually two – one to fly and stay mindful of the surroundings (the problem with FPV is you can’t look up and see those power lines you’re about to fly into), and one with the vid downlink to control the (stabilized) camera.

check out the copter kids, they’ve got this down to perfection, and throw in high-speed video for extra kicks:
