Awesome first post. However- terrible choice of a heli that you have your eye on... I think that most will agree that it is just not that great of a bird.

A budget would be nice.

For a lower budget, I would ask you to consider the Esky Belt CP or the Esky Honeybee King 2. They both come in a variety(RTF, ARF, bare bones...) and have awesome support(as in cheap compared to Eflite...). Both are able to perform 3D.

For a higher budget(one I wish I had, lol) Consider the Align T-rex 450 or 500. Amazing quality, but on the more expensive side. Definitely more than capable for 3D.
Not sure the best place to get these...

Hope this helps...
