Default Which heli for almost newbie (to heli's)

Ok, I've flown a heli before, but it was a micro, and only went up and down and back and forth.

I want one that is not Micro, but like the E-Flight Blade size. I want to be able to hover, up and down, left and right, and be able to spin the tail around if need be. Sorry, I don't know if that is 3D or what that is.

I don't want to break the bank, and Idon't mind used. Any suggestions? Would the Blade be good?

I want something like this (120 SR)

I guess Ineed to clarify. The heli that Iflew before, it wasn't much bigger than the palm of my hand. Idon't know what classification that would be, but Idon't want one that small.

Question: Why coaxial and not single blade? Pro's and con's?

Also, is there a site somewhere (maybe even on here) where Ican read about the pro's and con's of each different type of Heli? I know there's 2,3,4,and 6 channel and then single rotor (with a gyro?) and then coaxial (two blades that spin opposite to cancel motor torque and keep the heli from spinning?)
