flying in manual mode...how dangerous

I flew about a dozen different quads, all in manual mode, before getting a phantom, the FC40. Tried manual once on purpose, once by accident, both were utter failures. Verrry fast response to the sticks, some can do it, but not me. Couldn't believe the difference in response compared to Atti mode. Tore the battery, with the leads, off the board, ejected the sd card, and of course all the props and even the compass. A little soldering and it's still flyable today. I used the Iphone 4S and 6S plus with mine but after the camera's battery died I would just stick a Mobius on without any transmitting.
