Default RE: Esky Belt CP or Esky HoneyBee FP for a beginner

I never tried any of the air hogs, or any heli for that matter, but after some sim practice I'm ready for my HB FP, should be here tuesday, only has to come from Florida, KA-Planes has all the ESKY parts you need, another place in the US that will make ordering parts easier and quicker, but once I can fly a FP than I'll go the same route and buy a Belt CP. And about the E-flite, I cant imagine they would be any harder to learn on then any other similar heli, but the price, omg, I don't understand why 75% of local hobby shops carry the E-flite when they could carry a more diverse lineup that is cheaper and easier for people to join this sport/hobby. If I didn't have internet, I would have forgot all about getting a RC heli after seeing the prices at my LHS. But since I wont buy my heli there still gonna go buy some stuff just to get a good repor with the guys down there, I'm sure their knowledge will help me in the future.
