Default Getting into Heli questions

I am coming from the nitro car section and looking to get into the helicopters...I have built car kits and also purchased the RTR nitros. New RTR cars seem to be built fairly well from what I have noticed lately. One of my questions is does this apply to the ARF helis or no?...This being my first helicopter, building one seems intimidating...correct me if I am wrong please...
Next, I have been reading and looking around and have narrowed it down to the JR Venture 30 and of of the Century models...the Hawk SEII, Sport, and IV. Everyone has good things to say about them but what I'd like to know is which one the best bang for the buck for a beginner like myself as far as replacement cost, ease of repair, BUILDING INSTRUCTIONS if it is in kit form, etc...etc...
I will be getting a simulator first to practice on over the fall/winter months or however long it takes...
Thanks for any appreciated help...
