I think that this one would be a good one to start out on.

It's a good trainer and has extra pieces to make it even slower that you can take off after you get used to it. It is more expensive but you get more for it too. It is going to be alot more stable than the smaller electric models like the one you have listed. And the good thing is it has a basic version of Real Flight that lets you fly the exact same plane in the simulator. You may also find a more active club and come spring most will have a trainer night and you can take your plane there or may even get a chance to fly the club trainer plane to try it out. It might be worth it to make the drive starting out or to try it out. If you are serious in trying it out, I am trying to sell a heli and as a selling point I'm giving the buyer an option to buy my G4.5 simulator cheap if I don't sell the sim or put the heli on ebay I'll make ya a heck of a deal for the sim to start ya off.
