Default Need Help!

Hello!
I have been flying smaller helis for some time now, and I would like to advance to a 6 channel electric.
I can fly a 4 channel helicopter quite well, as well as glow aircraft. I was looking at Tower Hobbies, and found a Helimax AxeCP, which looked nice, and I almost bought it.
The reason I stopped was the fact that, for only a few dollars more,I could get a Dynam E-Razor 450. It has a machined rotor head, Lipo, esc, brushless motor, and all the required bits to make it RTF.
Is this really as good a deal as it looks? The Helimax is plastic, while this Dynam device looks very high end.
Would this be too difficult to fly, or can I tone down the throws?

Which is a better deal?

Thank you,
Graeme

Here is the page:

I forgot to mention it has a belt driven, adjustable pitch tail rotor (which is all metal).

It looks OK but not sure about parts. From the photos looks like it would be compatiable with align T-Rex parts. My suggestion would be get a Trex there are plenty of the around. Get it from a local hobby store, so if you need parts or help they are there. My experience with another mail order company ( which will remail nameless) was noot good.

Thanks for the advice - I'm not that thrilled about the price of the T-Rex. I only have 200 dollars to spend on the helicopter. It sure looks great though! It looks as if Nitroplanes carries a whole lot of spare parts, at cheap prices, although I'm not sure what would be worth ordering at this time.
What is likely to break?
