thank you
As a fair but not great r/c heli pilot who owns a dozen or so helicopters, here's my $0.02 worth.
Your first decision is what type of heli to buy. There are three types in the batch you've listed above; co-axial (two counter-rotating main blades like the Walkera 5#10 above), fixed pitch (like the Falcon 40), or 3D (which most of your proposed heli's are ... like the EXI 450LE)
I have and have flown helicopters like each of these. Here's my take:
Co-axial: easiest to fly and cheap, but limited in that they can't perform prolonged forward flight or any acrobatics
Fixed pitch: harder to fly, cheap, no acrobatics
3D (Collective Pitch): harder to fly, most expensive and hardest to set up, but most versitile (with practice, these can do anything)
I'd recommend:
Co-axial: if you go this route, I'd buy an E-Flight Blade MCX. It's tiny, perfect for flying around the house, and is AMAZINGLY stable (even for a coaxial heli). If you want something a little bigger, try either the E-Flight Blade CX2 or E-Sky Co-Lama V4.
Fixed Pitch: I'd skip it...
3D: For starting out I'd go with the Eflight Blade 400 because it has relatively inexpensive replacement parts. Alternatively, I consider the Thunder Tiger Mini-Titan E325 or the Align TRex 450. All of these are well built, are widely available, and have lots of dealers stocking parts.
Bear in mind that all of these are sold in varrying degrees of completion... all need a motor, speed controler, battery, 3 cyclic servos, gyro and tail servo. These electronics can run $$, so don't get sucked in by something that costs $60 (and may cost $400 to complete). Read the fine print and understand what quality components you're buying (I ended up replacing all the servos, gyro, and battery on my first heli within weeks).
Also, if you're going to go all-in along the 3D route, start by buying yourself a decent transmitter that you can grow with. I'd recommend the Specktrum DX7 (great) or JR9303 2.4Ghz (best) if you have the cash (if not the Specktrum DX6i is good too).
Finally, buiding these things (other than the coaxial helis) can be a bit tricky and set-up is critical if you want to successfully fly. I'd spend some time on the r/c heli boards (runryder and helifever are good) and/or find a local hobby shop that caters to heli pilots.
Ok, that's it... good luck!

How do you troubleshoot cranking a remote control plane?
everything hooked up and it still won't crank. sounds like it might but won't turn over
1. "turn over" - what does this mean? Do you mean the engine won't turn over? Are you using an electric starter or what?
Remove the glow plug, see if it turns over. If it does, this means you probably flooded the engine trying to start it. This causes a hydrolock condition -since liquids won't compress, the piston wont get to TDC. This is BAD - you can break the connecting rod if the starter is strong enough. Replace the glow plug AFTER checking #2 below, don't prime it so much, and try again.
If the engine doesn't turn over with the glow plug out, you probably broke the connecting rod trying to start it when flooded - you're hosed.
2. With the glow plug out of the engine, dab excess fuel off the plug with a paper towel and put the glow plug in the glow starter. It should glow a bright red, if it doesn't, the glow start battery is dead or you need a new glow plug.
3. Air inlet: with all electronics on, look in the carburetor. You should see a "tiny" sliver open that allows air in. Work the throttle stick back and forth to see it open and close, when you pull it down to idle, there should be a tiny sliver. If it's completely closed, move the throttle trim on the radio up to midpoint to keep it open slightly.
