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.

Law

These terms are governed by Illinois law (without regard to 
conflict of law 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 toll free 
telephone number referenced in the Warranty and Service 
Contact Information section to speak with a Product Support 
representative. 

Inspection or Services

If this Product needs to be inspected or serviced and is 
compliant in the country you live and use the Product in, 
please use the Horizon Online 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 Service Request is available at http://www.
horizonhobby.com/content/service-center_render-service-
center. If you do not have internet access, please contact 
Horizon Product Support to obtain a RMA number along with 
instructions for submitting your product for service. When 
calling Horizon, you will be asked to provide your complete 
name, street address, email address and phone number 
where you can be reached 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 Li-Po batteries to Horizon. If you 

have any issue with a Li-Po 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.
