double horse 9053 helis are they any good for outdoors and beginners ???? thanks in advance

All contra rotating heli's are pretty poo outdoors any breeze will have them going off for the horizon.(what you think is a nice still summers evening can be very different 10ft above your garden fence.)

IMO I would start with a blade mcx or similar, indoors only. The double horse thing would bother, and if wouldn't fly out doors unless was completely still no wind.

If there's no wind they will fly outside, I know an 8 year old boy who has one he can fly it quite well outside but if there's any wind at all you won't be able to control it. It will drift in the wind and travel far away without being able to bring it back. If it were me I'd get a decent flight sim like Phoenix and practice on a cp model then when you can hover in all four orientations comfortably get a small cp heli like a nano, mcpX or 130 X by blade they are great to fly but you will need some basic training first hence the flight sim. Or it will get very costly on repairs...

The answer is no not really. They are toys not hobby grade models, it will be no good outside unless conditions are perfect. You're best off with something offered from E-flite, look at their products you will get a much better heli.
