I personally would suggest you start with a coaxial instead of a FP or CP, is a world of difference moving up, the coaxials will give you some orientation practice but are far more stable, make fun flyers, likely the CX serie in Eflite are good as can handle gentle breezes as also heard of the Big Lama by Esky, Eflite abit better on the electronics from reviews, but both will work, thinking you prefer the outdoor flying, want some size...<>..

After that you going to have a ton of suggestions all having specific advantages, larger the better handling etc

My progression was as follows:
MCX Micro Coaxial, indoor fun, beauty $125
Hirobo SRB Quark FP, you'll keep hearing about this one, expensive but flys increadible for a small FP, excellent, $350 threads all true..
Pro 2, tweaky tail but entered the CP world, hovers rather well..around $230
Blade 400 CP RTF, complete, nice flyer, very touchy, patience, nice out of the box flyer, scale flying, all smiles..$350 to $450

Sorry - one heli isn't he answeer, you need more than one for easier success, Wish The Best ...<>..
