Throttles are not on-off switches. You should be flying it, with an instructor, at no more than half to three-quarters throttle.. no more. Flying slowly to keep on top of things is very important for new student pilots. It makes such events as preventable rather than inevitable.

You bring up great points which made me think about the different mechanical feel and reactions of the RealFlight sim controller and the Futaba Tx...exponential is it? The throttle seemed at half but that PT-60 was kicking itin abanked screaming half circleacrossthe sky towards us.
Totally different feel on the Tx that required instant adaptation in about 20 seconds and three turns of white knuckled flying
good times.
