Inspection or Repairs

please call for a Return Merchandise Authorization 
(RMA). 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. A Service Repair Request 
is available at www.horizonhobby.com on the 
“Support” tab. If you do not have internet access, 
please include a letter with your complete name, 
street address, email address and phone number

your RMA number, a list of the included items, 
method of payment for any non-warranty expenses 
and a brief summary of the problem. Your original 
sales receipt must also be included for warranty 
consideration. Be sure your name, address, and 
RMA number are clearly written on the outside of 
the shipping carton.

Warranty Inspection and Repairs
To receive warranty service, you must include 
your original sales receipt verifying the proof-of-
purchase date. Provided warranty conditions have 
been met, your Product will be repaired or replaced 
free of charge. Repair or replacement decisions are 
at the sole discretion of Horizon Hobby.  

Non-Warranty Repairs 
Should your repair not be covered by warranty 
the repair 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 
repair you are agreeing to payment of the repair 
without notification.  Repair estimates are available

well as Visa, Master Card, American Express, and 
Discover cards. If you choose to pay by credit 
card, please include your credit card number and
