Well, I played around with this a bit and discovered if you take the headlight beam and position it directly on the camera turret of the news copter, it will pivot and tilt WITH the camera mount -- which is an awesome fringe benefit. Also, if you dip the copter low enough, the beam slices into things and looks even more realistic.
In addition, I made a simple texture and 2 decals (for left and right sides of the copter) and now have a very adaptable police copter with a search beam for exciting night time freeway chase scenes.
I'm attaching the texture, decals and a couple of simple screen shots.
