RE: any good choice? for a newbie?
that depends on what kind of heli you want..
do you want a fixed pitch helicopter or a collective pitch helicopter?
for fixed pitch id go with walkera dragonfly#4. that was my first heli and it's pretty easy to fly. it can also take a hard beating and still continue flying.
trimming it isnt that hard or hard at all.. i was a complete newbie and i managed to selfteach myself how to fly.
now i have a cp heli which is a lot harder and now im getting help with it haha
what is your price range??
also dont get a 2ch heli. those can only take off land and spin 360* via rudder control. other than that you cant do jack with it. dont make a mistake by getting one as i did!!!!
STAY AWAY FROM 2CH helis!!!

Well I don't know, I maybe want something like the Blade CP, that's the only choice that I have I'm planning in not to spend more than 250 in my first heli

get the HB CP2. it's cheaper than the blade and better. not knock off cheaper.
