Yes, the Hirobo XRB Lama SR is a great way to get started.
That heli is an indoor only heli, but it is fantastically stable.
It is almost on the toyish side, but this model is much higher in quality than many other counter rotating blade helis.
For spares, get 2 boxes of each blade type.
And you will need batteries for the transmitter.

Take it, only if your friend promises he will be there to help you train on a trainer cord. You dont want to crash a nitro, because nitros are VERY expensive.

The Hirobo XRB Lama is good helicopter. But it is expensive. You can get a similar helicopter (lama 2 by eSky) for cheaper price. [link=http://www.linknety.com/modevideos/demo/zoom.php?id=14]Flying movie[/link]
