The FMS Futura is a neat EDF jet that is easy to put together and fly. The plane is very light at around 2 pounds, this the 64 mm fan provides plenty of power.
You will need to supply a transmitter, a six channel receiver, 4 cell lipo battery and a remote ID module if you are not flying in an FAA Recognized Identification area. No glue is required for kit assembly and the model goes together in 30 minutes.
The Futura handles very well in the air. I had the recommended throws. The only change I will make is to reduce the elevator throw a bit, as the bank was too sensitive. Other than that no changes needed.
The flaps are very effective for landing, they truly slow the jet down for this phase of flight. You can also add reverse thrust to an open channel and use the reverse thrust to shorten your landing rollout.
Here is my video on how to set up reverse thrust on the Futura:
