Indoor heli's are crap IMO. Far too light and skittish. They are cheap so if you bin it or get bored it doesn't matter so much, but I'd get a decent sized Trex copy to use outside.
Will make learning easier (though you might want to buy a few sets of blades as they WILL get broken).

They're not indoor helis, plenty of vids on Youtube of them being used outside.

My mistake never looked it up. I knew they were made by eSky who used to make little indoor toys basically.
The HBK3 actually looks pretty good. All the right bits in the right places and looks cool.
The older versions looked a bit crap but obviously been improved a lot over the past few years

This, with all the other stuff you don't get with the plane - engine, controller etc.
I've got a shit load of other stuff...
electric fuel filler pump with F1 style refill, plug in and release.
electric starter
glow plug heater
12v battery to run the stuff
loads of spares
wider under carriage
loads.
