This heli did not has a lot of ground effect, so for new hand is OK, but you will not feel the effect for take off.
Its difficult for me to recommend it to beginner. I only can say that this one is easy to control. For beginner, you may try the small double rotors. Because you need to learn the directions with your fingers. I hope you get my meanings!!
This CB180Q, final comment is too stable and like playing in slow motion!! Fantaskic for leisure playing, but you need a bigger space, not recommend to play indoor.
