That's really the only way a lot of it could be done even with the usual issues of using cell networks in crowds.The helicopter was using 4G which was seen as a pretty impressive feat at the time. Alternative would have been multiple downlink sites on sat trucks which would have just been horrendously expensive.
I can't remember how the pictures from the more rural bits of Scotland were done, I know there was a helicopter following the journey, but how those images got back I'll have to look up
