Yes it makes sense to have the OSD in the aircraft. It will only
weighs a few grams. The idea is for the pilot to have the choice to fly the
plane like a regular RC plane or to fly it fpv (looking at the video feed) with
the help of video headset (http://www.gowiththeshark.com/).
This way the pilot doesn't have to stay near the computer and will know in what
phase the autopilot is, allowing him to take control if something goes wrong.
It also opens the possibility to fly missions where no computer is required on
the field.

This won't help much, but...
Why are you doing the OSD in the aircraft and not on the ground?
