The #1 training heli in the world is Dragonfly 4, or Esky honey bee 4 ch, forget df# 60 for now.
Good luck.

I would look at the the Dragonfly 39. It's a copy of the T-Rex and the parts interchange from what I understand. If you get hooked with Heli's you can replace your parts with T-Rex parts as you break them then end up with a T-rex......Get better electronics later if you can.
I have the Venom version of the 22E and it can be a handfull for the beginner. If the 39 is anything like the T-rex it would be alot more beginner friendly. Oh by the way I have a T-rex.....I've been thinking of getting a 39 just to see how it would compare with the T-rex and see if it would be worth while for a beginner just starting out (on a limited budget) to learn on. The 39 comes with a brushless. Here's a link:

Edited: By the way replacing with T-Rex parts may be cheaper for example if you buy a T-rex mainshaft it comes with 3 shafts and lock ring for about $8.50 USD compared to $4.00 USD for 1 Walkera 39 mainshaft. Just do a little shopping
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

You could get the walkera 76c. It is 4 channel and when you have learnt all you can on it you can upgrade it to a 3d capable machine for around US$100.
