Hmm, hard to rent a helicopter (as a rated helicopter pilot) without first doing a checkout flight with an instructor. Plus the places that rent are schools, so I doubt they'd rent a chopper to you, for you to use with an outside CFI?

For just a PPL I'd try Helicopter Academy (Boatpix) as they have choppers all over the States and say they will often come to you.
