What this Warranty Covers – 

Horizon Hobby, LLC, (Horizon) warrants to the original 

purchaser that the product purchased (the “Product”) will be free from defects in 

materials and workmanship at the date of purchase.

What is Not Covered – 

This warranty is not transferable and does not cover (i) 

cosmetic damage, (ii) damage due to acts of God, accident, misuse, abuse, negligence, 

commercial use, or due to improper use, installation, operation or maintenance, (iii) 

modification of or to any part of the Product, (iv) attempted service by anyone other 

than a Horizon Hobby authorized service center, (v) Product not purchased from an 

authorized Horizon dealer, or (vi) Product not compliant with applicable technical 

regulations, or (vii) use that violates any applicable laws, rules, or regulations.
OTHER THAN THE EXPRESS WARRANTY ABOVE, HORIZON MAKES NO OTHER 

WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION, AND HEREBY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL IMPLIED 

WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF 

NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. 

THE PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THEY ALONE HAVE DETERMINED THAT 

THE PRODUCT WILL SUITABLY MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE PURCHASER’S 

INTENDED USE. 

Purchaser’s Remedy – 

Horizon’s sole obligation and purchaser’s sole and exclusive 

remedy shall be that Horizon will, at its option, either (i) service, or (ii) replace, any 

Product determined by Horizon to be defective. Horizon reserves the right to inspect 

any and all Product(s) involved in a warranty claim. Service or replacement decisions 

are at the sole discretion of Horizon. Proof of purchase is required for all warranty 

claims. SERVICE OR REPLACEMENT AS PROVIDED UNDER THIS WARRANTY IS THE 

PURCHASER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY. 

Limitation of Liability – 

HORIZON SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, 

INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSS OF PROFITS OR PRODUCTION OR 

COMMERCIAL LOSS IN ANY WAY, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH CLAIM IS BASED 

IN CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR ANY OTHER 

THEORY OF LIABILITY, EVEN IF HORIZON HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF 

SUCH DAMAGES. Further, in no event shall the liability of Horizon exceed the individual 

price of the Product on which liability is asserted. As Horizon has no control over 

use, setup, final assembly, modification or misuse, no liability shall be assumed nor 

accepted for any resulting damage or injury. By the act of use, setup or assembly, 

the user accepts all resulting liability. If you as the purchaser or user are not prepared 

to accept the liability associated with the use of the Product, purchaser is advised to 

return the Product immediately in new and unused condition to the place of purchase.

principals). This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other 

rights which vary from state to state. Horizon reserves the right to change or modify 

this warranty at any time without notice.

WARRANTY SERVICES
Questions, Assistance, and Services – 

Your local hobby store and/or place of 

purchase cannot provide warranty support or service. Once assembly, setup or use 

of the Product has been started, you must contact your local distributor or Horizon 

directly. This will enable Horizon to better answer your questions and service you in 

the event that you may need any assistance. For questions or assistance, please visit 

our website at www.horizonhobby.com, submit a Product Support Inquiry, or call the

Service Request submission process found on our website or call Horizon to obtain a 

Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number. Pack the Product securely using a 

shipping carton. Please note that original boxes may be included, but are not designed 

to withstand the rigors of shipping without additional protection. Ship via a carrier 

that provides tracking and insurance for lost or damaged parcels, as Horizon is not 

responsible for merchandise until it arrives and is accepted at our facility. An Online

render-service-center. If you do not have internet access, please contact Horizon

during business hours. When sending product into Horizon, please include your RMA 

number, a list of the included items, and a brief summary of the problem. A copy of your 

original sales receipt must be included for warranty consideration. Be sure your name, 

address, and RMA number are clearly written on the outside of the shipping carton. 

NOTICE: 

Do not ship LiPo batteries to Horizon. If you have any issue with a LiPo 

battery, please contact the appropriate Horizon Product Support office.

Warranty Requirements – 

For Warranty consideration, you must include your original 

sales receipt verifying the proof-of-purchase date. Provided warranty conditions 

have been met, your Product will be serviced or replaced free of charge. Service or 

replacement decisions are at the sole discretion of Horizon.

Non-Warranty Service – 

Should your service not be covered by warranty, service 

will be completed and payment will be required without notification or estimate of the 

expense unless the expense exceeds 50% of the retail purchase cost. By submitting 

the item for service you are agreeing to payment of the service without notification. 

Service estimates are available upon request. You must include this request with your 

item submitted for service. Non-warranty service estimates will be billed a minimum 

of ½ hour of labor. In addition you will be billed for return freight. Horizon accepts 

money orders and cashier’s checks, as well as Visa, MasterCard, American Express, 

and Discover cards. By submitting any item to Horizon for service, you are agreeing to 

Horizon’s Terms and Conditions found on our website http://www.horizonhobby.com/

content/service-center_render-service-center. 

ATTENTION: Horizon service is limited to Product compliant in the country 

of use and ownership. If received, a non-compliant Product will not be 

serviced. Further, the sender will be responsible for arranging return 

shipment of the un-serviced Product, through a carrier of the sender’s 

choice and at the sender’s expense. Horizon will hold non-compliant 

Product for a period of 60 days from notification, after which it will be 

discarded.
