Hi,

The reason why I suggested the XRB is because it is very stable not because it looks nice. It does look better in real life but I can understand if you do not like it. I do not know if your preference is towards RTF (ready to fly) as the set up on helis if you are a beginner can be quite complex.The Zoom 400 that you referred to is a good heli but I would not recommend to a person new to helis.However if you want to go this way,I would suggest that you get a flight sim such as Aerofly Professional Deluxe or Reflex XTR .Personally I prefer the Aerofly Pro Deluxe.I have also included a picture of the Trex 450X which I would recommend over the Zoom 400.
