I don't mean to be a wet blanket, but you are setting yourself up for disappointment. Front prop planes dominate for a good reason: they fly well. Yes, you'll go through a few props while you learn, but that's better than going through a few airframes. A good beginner plane for a guy who wants to do the hobby alone is the Hobby Zone Super Cub. It's priced within your budget and can take quite a beating. Really light FPV gear might fit onto a Super Cub, but on anything but calm days it'll be too shaky to be any fun. For your first flights, fly in a grassy field so you can ditch the plane in it if you need to. Light park flyers can frequently hit tall grass fairly hard and suffer no damage.

On the planes that you mentioned, I've heard favorable comments on the Bixler, but not the Skysurfer. I'm going to recommend against both though because of the companies that sell them. Hobby King and Banana Hobby are currently in a very tight contest for the award of worst hobby supplier in the history of RC. Seriously, if you get your plane within 3 weeks of the promised arrival date and all the parts are there and everything works, you'll be lucky. If not, you'll get to deal with a $1.45 a hour customer service rep whose only job is to get you off the phone and come up with a way to keep your money. Buy from a reputable company and get a good product like the Super Cub.
