| From the three you listed I would suggest you buy the Beam E4. Most of my helis I've bought piece by piece, trying to find the right deal. I usually break it down into the motor w/ESC, the kit, gyro/tail servo, and then the rest falls in somewhere in the middle. I know a few places have whole package deals, but I don't think you will save a lot vs. some smart shopping.
Do you have a radio and receiver yet?
If you start with the radio, then motor, and wait till later for the kit you might have better timing for the Rave. There is also another 450 coming out soon that I'm planning on buying over the Beam and the Rave.
From what I can tell, this is the hot tamale for 325mm size heli's:
-Hitec 65mg cyclic (I went with their flight pack; HS-5000 Gyro/HSG-5083 Tail Servo/3x HS-65HB Servos)
-Scorpion HK2221-6 or HK2221-8
ESC is debatable
Gyro is debatable, I really like the HS-5000, although the spartan is supposed to be the cream of the crop right now.
