Well if you have never flown an rc heli before, going straight for a single rotor heli is a bit like jumping in at the deep end. You may learn to swim but you also stand a good chance of drowning
By going the coaxial route you are pretty much guaranteed a fair degree of success. Although some people have even been known to struggle with these as well.
Learning to fly a single rotor heli takes a lot of practice and at this time of year theres realy not going to be many times when the weather and low winds are going to allow this.

My opinion is get a coax bnf (CX2 is pretty good) and a Spektrum DX6i (to use with the CX2) and enjoy some indoor flying. Plus get yourself a copy of the Phoenix simulator (Works well with the DX6i) on which to practice flying proper cp helis.

Then you will be well set up for getting into the bigger single rotor stuff by the time next spring / summer gets here
