The moment you go live, Nova Aircast notifies your recipients with a direct viewing link, so your command team, stakeholders, or crew are watching within seconds. Stream to Your Workspace, Organized by Project Assign each flight to a project on the Nova web platform so your footage stays structured and searchable. No more digging through disconnected video files after a mission. Every Stream Saved as a VOD Every live stream is automatically saved as a VOD on the platform. Miss something mid-flight? Watch it back in full after the mission is complete. Your footage stays organized within its project for easy access later. Works With the Drones You Already Use Native support for consumer DJI drones (including the popular Avata series) and Autel models (including the EVO series) so your existing equipment is ready to go from day one. Designed for High-Stakes Environments From coordinating search and rescue missions to managing emergency scenes and keeping distributed teams informed, Nova Aircast is built for professionals who need reliable, real-time aerial visibility.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: VXS2 at fortnightly against Nova Aircast's every 5 weeks. Nova Aircast's advantage is iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
