Mate I've got an airush 3M trainer kite which i bought about 2 years ago and it helped me so much with learning to control the kite etc.
Good fun when the winds not to big aswell.

What's to know about trainer kites and any advice on what to get and reommended videos.

They teach you essential kite flying skills. You can learn these skills in complete safety and in so many more locations, because the kite size is appropriate and will not lift you or drag you into solid objects.
Get one with a 3rd line safety system, so you can practice letting go of the bar in an emergency and to self land the trainer kite.
Ozone Imp trainer kite is the best on the market IMO (I sell them). So do all the dealers listed here. www.ozonekites.com.au
