Default heli question

Hey guy's

I'm pretty excited about learning how to fly a heli, I have been flying the sim(G2) for a while just messing around with heli for about six months. I have a chance to buy a Caliber .30 and all the radio gear for cost, My good friend that owns a hobbie shop. flying planes has been a blast but hauling them down to the field is getting old with all the non-3D circle flyers.

my question, is a .30 size heli going to be as stable or fly as well as bigger models .50-.60 size? when i started flying a .40 size plane than jumped into a 33% i was kicking my self for not doing it earlier. I feel pretty confident flying the sim but i don't think it's going to be like real sick time.

here is the plan

Caliber .30 ARF with O.S. .32
Futaba GY401 with 9253
Futaba 9252 digitals
Futaba 149 DP PCM

Or should I go .50-.60 size?
