First congrats on keeping a cool head when the throttle stuck and mananaging to not break your plane. The fact that you didn't land the plane back on the runway after the engine died means that you are not ready to solo. You have just found out that takeoffs are usually pretty easy compared to landings as long as the engine is running properly. Simulated deadsticks are part of the training but should only be taught after you have proven that you can do slow fly bys at low altitude. So please don't rush things and continue your training. It will benefit both you and your club. On the sticking throttle, 2 main things can cause this, 1. the servo tray has popped loose making the throttle servo movements useless. 2. the throttle barrel in the carb has jammed. This happens in particular brands such as Super Tigers. If this has happened ask your instructor how to fix it or if the engine was bought from a local hobby shp, take it back and ask for a new one!
