Lol, well, I suppose. Usually, you lose speed on turns so hitting a tree won't be as bad (hopefully). At the very least, turning on failsafe will be less likely to hit or get hit by something bigger and more destructive... like a car! :)

And to an earlier post: you can plug the battery into any connector, including AUX. The only advantage to using the dedicated BATT connector for the power is that it leaves the AUX channel free for an AUX servo connector. The battery and ground contacts are all in direct parallel inside the receiver - only the signal wires are seperate. Some people add a capacitor on the power connections of the AUX channel to help smooth out the UBEC voltage and it also adds a little amperage boost for short durations. This helps the servos to respond a bit faster and is easier on the UBEC. Just like our BL motors (or brushed motors for that matter), the most current is pulled at the beginning; A servo acts the same way.
