I will just say I just started 4 years ago, I did some simulator flying, then took my apprentice to the air with safe and it helped me understand some basic principles (like to land u control the plane with throttle not elevator, or rudder upon landing on runway not ailerons) things like that, I stopped using the safe mode after a few flights and now I fly turbines... my second plane was an old avistar balsa nitro plane and third was a foamy T28 great first plane also. Nothing wrong with safe it’s created for a reason to help lessen the financial burden on learning curves

Its pretty darn hard to crash a plane when in SAFE mode.....but you flip the switch and it's a whole different story.
