Personally I would recommend the Allouette. The -47 is jumping in at the deep end. Think of the 47 as the ‘stone to sharpen your blade’ later on.
It does depend a little on what you may want to fly later on. Blackbird’s Huey should be amazing (no pressure Blackbird!) and if that was somewhere you would want to head I would suggest a teetering head. The Cowan B206 jet ranger would be ideal. Then the 47 to sharpen your skills some more. The UH-1 would be an enjoyable breeze after that 
If you want to move to the likes of the EC135 or similar (twin engine helicopters with a lot of assists, more system oriented) go the Allouette, or the Cowan H125 B3 for a start. Note the the B3 is ‘realistically’ squirrelly in the hover; especially below 3’.
The difference between a teetering head and a semi-rigid or fully articulated head is ‘control power’; how much you can influence the attitude of the fuselage through manipulation of the rotor disc via the cyclic. The more solid the interface between the fuselage and the main rotor, the more control power you have, and the more responsive the reactions will be to your inputs. A teetering head is at the lowest end of the control power scale. You ‘fly the main rotor’ whilst dangling from it’s center of rotation in a very expensive gondola! The main rotor is very stable. The fuselage is not. There is consequently a disconnect between your input and the response of the ‘gondola’, thus setting an ‘attitude’ (setting and holding a fixed picture in front and making changes to that picture) becomes so much more important. If you try to fly a teetering head system by reference how you’re moving over the ground, you will induce oscillations and the helicopter in the hover will probably move about in a circle over the ground about as large as the rotor diameter. Like so many things in aviation it comes down to where you look and how you look!
Watch plenty of videos on how everything works. I am planning to produce some tutorials shortly to help people fine tune their lift offs, hovering, slope landings and approaches to land. I find a lot of vids are missing some crucial concepts to make the flying smoother and therefore more enjoyable.
Have fun with it. Start with the simple helicopter flight model but don’t stay there too long. 1-2 flights max. Get into the realistic model and turn crashes off - much better way to learn.
Good luck
