Raspberry flight controller

[/RaspberryPi]

I want to make a rc plane with the ability to be controlled by my laptop with a pi board as the controller for the rc plane. (The reason im doing this is so I can make my own unmanned flight code and other novelties) The main problem with this concept im having is that I don't know how id connect to the plane over a long distance to my laptop. I was thinking maybe via sim card but paying for the bandwidth for video and only being able to fly where there is cell service isnt ideal. The only other thing I can think of is via radio but i have no idea how to even start that. ANY ideas?
