Your local radioshack still might have some flatfoto (3rd generation
which is 3.something megapixels). I just checked and it's no longer on
their site, but they had them last month for about $40. With a glass
lens from an optics surplus place with very short focal length, you
can get some interesting wide angle shots. Since your plane is RC, use
one channel to trigger it.
