I am a new pilot, so I am speaking from experience.  Get the Blade 120sr!!!  Especially if your LHS carries them.  They are relatively easy to fly and pretty stable.  I am learning on a 120sr and an mSRx currently and started with a cheap chinese heli from xheli.com.  All you have to do is go to their website and see why you should buy the 120sr at your LHS or on horizonhobby.com. Practically EVERYTHING on xheli is out of stock and has been since before Christmas.  I have bought several things from horizonhobby.com and their shipping is quite fast and predictably in stock for the most part.  If you are a new pilot too, you will want to get replacement parts fast because you are gonna break lots.  I am still in that phase myself, and between my LHS and horizonhobby.com I can get parts to keep me in the air.  If you get the 120sr, I think you will be happy, as long as you have a large enough space INSIDE to learn on.  It is not a good heli to learn on outside.  The wind will take it quickly if you aren't careful.  Have fun and good luck! <div>
