    Well, you know what they say: If you can't fly, photograph.

    I'd sell it for the cost of my upgrade kit.  I will include any spares I have on hand that are not compatible with the Advance model, although I will have to see what those will be.

    It's in like new condition as you know I replaced a lot just recently.  I could provide a list if you want.

    Normally I would be interested but we've got DUSTY wallet syndrome  :eek:

    {LMAO} Hey Bill, BAD timing asking for the "Aussie link" ... Instead of buying Yoda's E4 I could go there and buy the updated E4, same price! [​IMG]

    Just KIDDING Yoda I wouldn't do that to ya, I said I'd buy and my word is golden. Besides I wouldn't get the cool additions [​IMG]

    That's a pretty good deal.  Advantage Hobby USED to be the American distributor for Beam but now A Main Hobbies is.  I would keep my eye on Advantage Hobby as I bet they will blow out any inventory they have.

    I've got one of these cases:

    http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_info.php/cPath/2_375_1498_376/products_id/9564/n/Align-T-Rex-450-Aluminum-Case

    I had to do a little trimming of the interior foam, but it fits the Beam E4 like a glove and also holds my five batteries, my DX7se and my ContourHD camera and assorted small bits.

    This is the one that can get the Beam E4 to Beam E4 Advance kit:

    I have also shopped at some other Australian shops for parts last summer, but can't remember which one.  You can check out http://www.archeli.com.au for links and info on the new Beam AvantGarde which is the new Beam 600 size.  Brooknet in Australia is the general distributor down under.

    Got to see GPS's heli fly Saturday and again this afternoon.  What a sweet machine!  Flys smooth as glass.  Nice work John!
