I think one of the best trainers unless you only fly outside is the mSRx (RTF or Ready To fly). It is light enough to take some serious first pilot abuse due to light weight and low momentum when hitting something.
The mSRx can take very light winds outside and I've helped more than one pilot transition from fixed wing (planks) to rotors with this heli.
The single best thing you can do is get a good RC simulator and from my experience the single best (both most bang for your buck and accurate flight physics) is the Phoenix flight Sim. Money WELL spent!
