Hey Real2You thanks for replying and the advice, as for budget that's not a problem. What I would like to do is not buy a bunch of Heli's that I don't need. I planed on the SIM and a good radio like the one you have. The LHS advice was to get a Blade CX2 to start with and then move up, I am thinking he wants to sell me a bunch of Heli's that I really don't need. I have read where some say start with a 450???

Be absolutely honest with yourself, and put a solid number on your budget. Be realistic and consider that some of that budget will be used to buy spare parts during the first few months. A 450 is a good place to start, but if your budget is really not a problem, I would start with something a little bigger, like a 500 or even a 30 or 50 sized nitro, or electric. The bigger the helicopter the better the flying characteristics.
