Vehicles;

The vehicles sold by Rcmodelz are advanced models and will require knowledge of them to be able to maintain and repair them. If you are unable or unwilling to do this, then we regrettably ask you not to purchase any of our vehicles.

 

Receiving your goods;

Once you have received your Vehicle, please refer to our starter guide which is under diagrams on the top right hand corner of our home page, Email copy can be sent at buyers request.
We expect upon receiving your vehicle you check through all the nuts, bolts and screws, tighten and use thread lock where needed. Grease your diffs and fill your shocks with shock oil with the weight required on your terrain.

You will also need to fit and aftermarket kill switch as these are extremely powerful vehicles, and can cause a lot of damage if out of control! If you are not wanting to fit a kill switch then please do not purchase one of these vehicles, as these vehicles could not only cause damage to yourself, your car but also to others.

We would also like to note that if you have ordered a car with a painted bodyshell there may be slight marks some edges or flaking as the quality of paint being used by manufacturer isn’t always perfect, if this is an issue we advise you to buy a clear bodyshell.

You should inspect the products when you receive them for defects or damage. Items delivered by courier which are clearly damaged on delivery must be signed for as such or refused and returned to us.

 

Safeplaces 

The landscape of delivery has changed in recent times, now Couriers & Postal Services are able to leave parcels on your premises under safeplaces. RCModelz is not liable for any parcel left in a safeplace. 

We recommend opt-ing out of Safeplaces this can be done by downloading the Royal Mail App where you can opt out of Safeplace, so they know to use alternative delivery options for your items if you’re not in.

We also send parcels via DPD, If you opt into having items delivered safe this is done by DPD on an address basis so if you have opted in previously they may still leave safe. If you are unsure you can contact DPD to make sure or revoke any authorisations you may have previously given.

Warranty;

Due to the nature of the products we sell and the environment they operate in, breakages can occur. We give a 30 day in store warranty on the electrics on the vehicle from date of purchase, we would expect you to remove faulty parts and return it to us for warranty, and all warranty Parts will be inspected by Rcmodelz and are aimed to be dispatched the same day upon receiving faulty part, after the 30 days any parts will be sent to the manufactuers for inspection during the rest of the manufactuers warranty. Engines and drivetrain are excluded from any warranty due to the nature of the hobby and the requierment that is required to tune and operate them.

When claiming under a warranty the product or defective parts must be removed and returned to us for examination (via 2nd class signed for post). You will be notified by email if your claim is valid in which case it will be repaired or replaced and sent back to you. If the product or parts are not covered by the warranty a quote will be supplied for repair also you will be required to cover any postal fees. All warranty claims are for Purchaser only and require original proof of purchase, warranty is none transferable.

The Goods usually come with a manufacturer's warranty. The scope and duration of the warranty varies from product to product and will usually cover manufacturing defects but not physical damage cause by crashing, abuse, water ingress or general wear and tear or if Goods have been misused, altered or repaired without our approval. You should refer to the terms of the warranty supplied with the Goods. You may contact us in the first instance and we will usually inspect the Goods and may be able to deal with your query through a phone call or email. You should not make any further use of Goods where you discover a defect as this may affect your rights under the manufacturer's warranty. Any Goods which need to be returned for these purposes should always be clean and not covered in dirt. You should also complete any warranty card details to claim under a manufacturer's warranty and provide a copy of your receipt together with a note detailing the problem and the reason for the return.

Other;

All items are 100% brand-new, and not refurbished in any way, unless the listing specifically states otherwise. Boxes may be opened for the purpose of testing, inspecting, photographing, adding additional padding/packaging/instruction supplements, or ensuring the completeness of the item and to check all electrics work before despatched.

Fitment is correct at time of listing, but manufacturing can change and parts can change. This can then require slight modification in order to fit. Some upgrades are tested to fit with stock parts and not other upgrade and this is not a fault or warrantly claim. we are happy to take item back if they do not fit providing they show not signs of fitment or any marks that will affect reselling. But if returned under fitment it is at buyers expense.
