Inspection or Repairs

If your product needs to be inspected or repaired, 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 Hobby, Inc. is not 

responsible for merchandise until it arrives and is accepted 

at our facility. Include your complete name, address, phone 

number where you can be reached during business days, 

RMA number, and a brief summary of the problem. Be sure 

your name, address, and RMA number are clearly written on 

the shipping carton.

Warranty Inspection and Repairs

To receive warranty service, you must include your original 

sales receipt verifying the proof-of-purchase date. Providing 

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 and the 

expense exceeds 50% of the retail purchase cost, you will 

be provided with an estimate advising you of your options. 

You will be billed for any return freight for non-warranty 

repairs. Please advise us of your preferred method of 

payment. Horizon Hobby accepts money orders and cashiers 

checks, as well as Visa, MasterCard, American Express, 

and Discover cards. If you choose to pay by credit card, 

please include your credit card number and expiration date. 

Any repair left unpaid or unclaimed after 90 days will be 

considered abandoned and will be disposed of accordingly.
