Return Policy

At RC Planes, we want customers to feel confident when purchasing RC aircraft and related hobby products through salercplanes.com. We understand that choosing an RC plane involves considering many factors, including design, features, size, performance, and personal flying preferences. This Return Policy provides general guidance regarding product returns and helps explain the conditions that may apply when a customer wishes to return an eligible purchase.

General Return Principles

Customers are encouraged to review product descriptions, specifications, images, and other available information carefully before placing an order. Choosing an aircraft that matches your experience level and intended use can help ensure a satisfactory purchase.

If a customer receives a product that is eligible for return under the applicable conditions, the item should generally be returned in an appropriate condition and with its original components and packaging whenever reasonably possible.

Eligibility for Returns

A product may be considered for return when it meets the applicable return requirements. Items should generally be unused, undamaged, and in a condition suitable for resale.

Products that have been significantly altered, damaged through improper use, or modified after delivery may not qualify for return consideration. Because RC aircraft can contain electronic, mechanical, structural, and moving components, customers should handle products carefully when inspecting them.

Before operating an aircraft, customers should make sure they understand the product instructions and specifications. Once a product has been flown, assembled, modified, or otherwise used extensively, its eligibility for return may be affected.

Product Condition

When preparing an eligible return, customers should keep the product in its original condition as much as reasonably possible. Original packaging, accessories, manuals, components, and other materials should be retained when available.

For RC aircraft, this is particularly important because a model may include multiple parts and specialized components. Missing accessories or damaged packaging may affect the evaluation of a return.

Customers should avoid unnecessary use, modification, painting, disassembly, or other alterations before deciding whether to return an item.

Damaged Products

If a product appears to have been damaged before or during delivery, customers should avoid operating it. Continued use of a damaged RC aircraft may create additional damage or make it more difficult to determine the original condition of the product.

Customers should carefully inspect the product and retain relevant packaging materials when damage is discovered. Appropriate documentation may be useful when evaluating the condition of an item.

Incorrect or Incomplete Products

If a customer receives an item that does not correspond with the order, the situation should be reviewed before the product is used or modified. Customers should keep the product, packaging, and included components together while the issue is being evaluated.

For RC Planes, accurate product identification is important because different aircraft models can have similar appearances while having different specifications or components.

Items That May Not Qualify

Certain circumstances may make a product ineligible for return. These may include products that have been used beyond reasonable inspection, damaged through misuse, improperly assembled, modified, or missing important components.

Products that show signs of accidental damage after delivery may also be subject to additional review. Return eligibility is determined according to the condition of the product and the applicable requirements.

Safe Inspection

Customers are encouraged to inspect products carefully without unnecessarily operating them. For aircraft containing batteries, electronics, motors, propellers, or other mechanical components, safety should always be considered during inspection.

If a product appears defective or damaged, customers should avoid attempting repairs unless specifically appropriate. Unauthorized repairs or modifications can affect the condition of the product and may influence return eligibility.

Return Packaging

When a return is approved, customers should package the product securely. RC planes may contain delicate structures and components that can be damaged if they are not adequately protected during transportation.

Whenever possible, the original packaging should be used. Additional protective material may be appropriate to help prevent movement or impact during transit.

The returned product should include the relevant components and accessories that were supplied with the original order whenever applicable.

Return Review

Once an eligible returned product is received, its condition may be reviewed to determine whether it meets the requirements of this policy.

The review may consider factors such as the product’s physical condition, whether components are missing, whether the aircraft has been operated or modified, and whether the returned item corresponds with the original order.

A return is not necessarily considered complete until the product has been evaluated according to the applicable requirements.

Refund Considerations

When a return is approved, any applicable refund will be handled according to the circumstances of the order and the applicable return requirements.

The condition of the returned product may affect the outcome of the return evaluation. Customers should therefore ensure that products are carefully preserved while determining whether a return is necessary.

Exchanges

Depending on the circumstances, an exchange may be considered when an item qualifies under the applicable return requirements. Product availability and compatibility may influence whether an exchange is possible.

Customers should not send products back without first following the appropriate return process, as unauthorized returns may create delays or complications.

Products Purchased as Gifts

If an RC aircraft is purchased as a gift, the same product condition requirements may apply. Gift recipients should keep the original packaging, accessories, and documentation whenever possible.

Before assembling or operating a gifted aircraft, it is recommended to review the product information carefully to ensure that the model is suitable for the intended user.

Customer Responsibility

Customers are responsible for reviewing product information before purchase and following applicable instructions after receiving an RC aircraft.

Proper handling is particularly important for hobby products containing electronic and mechanical components. Customers should operate aircraft responsibly and follow relevant safety requirements.

A return request should be made based on the actual condition and circumstances of the product. Customers should not intentionally damage, alter, or misuse an item in an attempt to qualify for a return.

Changes to This Policy

RC Planes may update this Return Policy when necessary to reflect changes in business practices, product categories, operational procedures, or applicable requirements.

Any updated policy will be presented through salercplanes.com. Customers are encouraged to review the applicable policy information when making future purchases.
