Hi, I just started with a Hummingbird, Mainly because my LHS has a lot of available parts. And I got mine from Helihobby.com complete without Tx, but with a crash kit [you will need it] for 250.00. I read a lot of neg. feedback on Helihobby but found it to be a fast and helpful transaction.
Good luck....it sure is fun

Be prepared for a lot of crashes with a micro heli. They're just too small and unstable to be good starter helis. I had a Piccolo for my first heli, and got to where I could fly it reasonably well, but by that time I'd spent close to $500. The LMH Corona would make a much better first heli.

However, I can recomend a Piccolo as a first micro. It's fairly tough and flies well.
