Warranty On TruTrak Flight Systems Products

 

 

Here at Trutrak Flight Systems, we know how important it is to feel as though the customer is purchasing a product that 
the manufacturer is going to stand behind. For this reason we want offer more than the basic one year warranty that is 
standard to this industry.  The warranty on all TruTrak products will be three years from the date of purchase.  Abuse 

and misuse of a product are not covered under this warranty. Modification to a product may void the warranty, as well 
as carry a penalty when upgrading to another product. This three year warranty will be for all products except the 
Pictorial Turn & Bank, which will continue to have a warranty of one year from the date of purchase.

 

 

 

TruTrak Flight Systems No Penalty Upgrade Policy

 

 

As the product line continues to grow, it becomes increasingly difficult to maintain a simple upgrade policy.  We do 
want to reward our repeat customers by allowing a lower cost upgrade from one system to another; however we are 
not able to offer this across the board on all products.  If you are considering an upgrade, please call and we will give 
you a quote on what this would cost.  Many products that we sell today are upgradeable for only the difference in 

system price.  Because we continually strive to have the most up to date products possible, we occasionally have to 
discontinue products.  We will continue to offer discounted upgrades even for our discontinued products.
