Some FAQs:

Will parts for the Beam E4 V1 still be available?
Yes we will continue to bring in and support the original Beam continually

Will i be able to buy the Beam E4 V1?
No, unless any of our retailers have existing stock, the new Beam E4 V2 Advantage is the replacement model.

What is the Beam E4 V2 Advantage?
It is the new version of the popular Beam E4 450 sized heli, earlier listed as the Beam E5, but renamed to the Beam E4 V2 (version 2) Advantage.

Tell me about the Flybarless head
The Flybarless head will replace the whole head assembly including the main shaft, you will need to purchase an electronic flybarless head controller like the Mini V Bar flybarless system. All parts on the Flybarless head assembly are coming in at the same time as the shipment, so it will be supported straight away for parts.

What will the parts support be like for the new Beam E4 V2 Advantage?
We have a huge array of parts online the day the the Beams arrive into stock, so the support will be there straight away and each of our retail outlets have made a commitment to have all the parts online shortly thereafter.

I have the Beam E4 V1 but would like to upgrade to the V2, is this possible?
Yes there will be a specific upgrade kit available very soon, with the first shipment, prices shortly to follow, and no its not a huge undertaking.. more details to follow.

What is Beam doing next?

Beam has plans to release a 50-size nitro, followed by a 600-size electric early in 2010. There are other size models on the planning board, but nothing has been confirmed as to when they will be produced/released.
