| I have flown a lot of little 325mm bladed heli's as well. T-rex 450 (all version ), Mini Titan, MX 400, Thunder Power Extreme 450, plus built many, many custom built 325mm size heli's.
Most of them have been good up till now. The biggest problem I have with most is that they get or have a lot of slop in the head. Which makes them feel kind of like you are not as "locked in" when you fly.
I believe that the bar has been raised a bit in the 325mm blade class. There has been a lot of much better machined and built heli’s coming to the market, and BEAM is one of them.
What I really like about the BEAM is that it’s very tight in the head and tail. I am getting close to 70 flight on one of mine. It is almost as tight as the new one I just built last week. Both fly very nice. It also has much better phasing then the T-rex 450's do. Which makes it fly more precise.
The parts availability is much better with Advantage Hobby being the distributor. You can see they are looking for dealers, it is only a matter of time until part will be all over the country. If not, Advantage is a great place to purchase your items, there shipping is fast and I have yet to see any parts out of stock that I needed.
I hope that helps
