Live stream your drone and broadcast to multiple platforms at the same time. Birvie gives drone pilots one place to prepare a broadcast, preview a compatible camera, go live, share the stream, and replay past flights.

Newer models such as Mini 3/4 Pro, Air 3/3S, Mavic 3 and Neo require DJI Fly or another compatible encoder.
