A few Firebee-related videos were posted on YouTube:
Night Photographic Systems (Infrared Photo-reconnaissance) 1974 USAF Air Force Systems Command about the 147SRE model
CriticalPast - low-level Firebee with flares being shot down
1958 World Wide Weapons Meet, Project William Tell, Tyndall AFB - interesting footage but horrible quality. Shorter version available from the National Archives in better but still not good quality.
Office of Image Archaeology - Teledyne, Ryan, Firebee, BQM-34F, flight number 1
Starting 2013, the San Diego Air and Space Museum (SDASM) has posted many Teledyne-Ryan videos on YouTube. The following Model 147 / AQM-34 / BGM-34 related videos were found so far, but there may be more. Note that the F numbers are assigned by the SDASM. The descriptions below were partly made with the assistance of Craig Kaston. Many movies suffer from severe color degredation, and quite a few are shown (partially) mirrored. The sound is often missing, or was never there. I corrected the titles when there were obvious errors.

F-0875 Project Firefly Surveillance UAV and Lockheed C-130 Hercules - Describes the Models 147A, B, C and D. First shown is a launch of an 147A, next camera installation, followed by an explanation of the 147D mission, the 147B design changes (bigger wing and a Doppler navigator). Flight testing at Holloman with three Firebees, a 147C with Doppler (X147C), a 147B without Doppler (X147B-1) and a 147B with Doppler and camera (X147B-2). Doppler problems are discussed, resulting in a planar array Doppler antenna. Test flights were continued at Eglin AFB for navigation tests. Last shown is an all-black model in flight. White RAM 'blankets' are seen on many drones. | X | X | X | X | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

F-1037 Teledyne Ryan 147 UAV. No sound, slow-motion. It shows the assembly of an all-black Model 147E at Eglin AFB. Possibly it is serial number 1, see F-1038 where 'E-1' is written on an electronics box. The 147E were the SA-2 SIGINT birds, later used successfully in Vietnam to obtain the SA-2 proximity fuse frequencies. Instead of a camera payload it has an electronics payload. Shown are wing-fuselage assembly, two high voltage devices near the engine exhaust, a large electronics box in the camera compartment, wing twist measurement, an disc-like antenna or electronic device below the inlet duct, that is later show to be mounted in the radome. In the radome a '147A170-1' part number is visible. The 'A' does not signify the 147A model, but refers to a part of the 'armament' system. Similarly 'E' is electronics, 'W' is wing, 'N' is nacelle, etcetera. | X | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
F-1038 Teledyne Ryan 147 UAV. Probably a continuation of the previous video. No sound. Shown are the fitting of the radome, with the engine nacelle/nose positioned at an angle under the upper fuselage. The outboard wing is seen folded 80 degrees up. A close-up shows electronics with 'E1' written on with a felt pen. Electronics are checked out on a scope. | X | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
F-1039 Teledyne Ryan Firebee UAV 147. Probably a continuation of the previous video. No sound. Shown are a long view inside a compartment with a few components installed. Next is maneuvering on the flight line with the Firebee on a dolly, with two B-47s in the background. This is followed by a view in the rear fuselage electronics compartment. Last is the installation of screws in the wing root fairing. At least the part between 2:57 and 3:16 is shown mirrored, since the electronics hatch is on the left rear fuselage, not the right side. | X | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
