Buying from Buddy RC

Buddy RC is a strong pick for RC pilots who need specific parts, power systems or helicopter spares from a US warehouse with same-day dispatch. Skip it if you want generous returns, since shipping is never refunded and returns that aren't in new condition carry a 10 to 20% restock fee. Confirm the exact part number and motor or frame compatibility before ordering, because most of the catalog is model-specific.

Returns
Items can be returned within 30 days of receipt with an RMA code requested by email. Returns in new condition with original packaging have no restock fee; others are charged 10 to 20%, and shipping fees are not refunded.
