When learning to fly heli's the main goal is stability. Stability with heli's is more dependant on the flybar and paddles. Take the hirobo evo .50. With no wieghts in the flybar paddles it flips and rolls really fast, and that will get a beginner in trouble really fast too. But, add the weights that are included into the paddles and the heli is stable as rock in a hover and rolls sssslllllllooooooowwwww.

To answer you question though longer blades do slow things up a bit also provided they are the same weight as the shorter ones.
