Yea he's right, get the cx2, with in one week you'll learn enough from the cx2 to start off wanting a 6channel, but still have fun with the cx2. The second heli that I would recommend, is the V4Lama, its way cheaper, and can be upgraded also, and will fly just as good as the cx2 with the right trim...tho not as good as the cx2, but right with it with a better price. You can get it for under 90$ at XHeli.com, $88.00 or horrizon Hobbys for the cx2. Hope this helps out, and have some great flites.
