RE: Beginner!! to the heli world
Just as note, my Trex 600N Pro built ready to fly (not including the radio) cost about $2500 so beware if you decide to pursue helis seriously. Helis are by far the most expensive hobby grade RC available (that I know of) due to the parts construction, complexity and electronics requirements.
There are some seriously cheap helis out there (sub $200) but most aren't worth the materials they're made out of.
