I’ll admit I’m not the most capable drone pilot, but when I was handed the controller for Propel’s X-wing battling drone something remarkable happened. Reader, I became Luke Skywalker. This newfound aerial confidence might’ve had something to do with John Williams’ famous theme blasting from the box as I removed the lid, or maybe it was the sheer authenticity (each model is hand-painted) or the easy one-button launch. All I know is that I was born to fly that Starfighter, and sending it careering into the curtains wasn’t going to deter me. £150 / maplin.co.uk
