RMA procedure

Hello,

I am requesting a refund and return of the product as it simply does not work as many others have experienced. Please advise as to how you wish to proceed in this RMA.

Thanks,
Beau

Hello Beau,
Thank you for contacting us, and I am very sorry to hear that you are having trouble with your Orbit.

As a small company launching a product through Kickstarter, we have found that there are handful of customers who have had a true manufacturers defect or who simply didn't enjoy the experience. If this is the case we are more than happy to either replace the unit with one that we extensively test first, or provide a full refund per your request.

However, with the vast majority of our customers who experience difficultly operating the Orbit, a quick email or simple customer support phone call solves the issue. As I am sure you can appreciate the development tracker is where people discuss the problems they have with the product, and some have been resolved, while others we have found to be true defects.

The Orbit is designed to be continuously improved through our Software Updates. Our development team has been working around the clock on an update for iOS and a third update for Android. Many of the problems that we haven't been able to solve through troubleshooting will be addressable through these updates.

It would help immensely to know more about what issues you are personally experiencing so that we can see if there is anything we can do to address your concern.

If you would not mind answering the following questions, I can work with our developers to see if there is a solution.

1. What mobile device are you using? (make and model, and sw version if you know it)

2. Are you able to "pair" the headset with the mobile device?

3. Are you able to achieve a 100% full green "signal" bar when connecting through the Puzzlebox Orbit App?

4. Have you charged the Orbit and the IR Transmitter?

5. Is the volume on your device at 100% maximum after you insert the IR Transmitter?

6. Does the IR transmitter turn on a blue light when either the Red "Attention" Bar or Blue "Meditation" Bar cross the threshold (the small grey box) and a yellow bar appear for "Signal"?

7. Does the Orbit have a flashing blue light when you turn it on (which should be right before you are ready to fly it)?

Thank you so much for your help in answering these questions, so that we can help you enjoy your mind controlled helicopter. On the other hand, if you simply do not like the product, and would like a refund, please let me know, we will be happy to accommodate you. These are our standard troubleshooting questions questions and they are not to make your life more difficult. Addressing your concern and ensuring you have a satisfactory resolution is our top priority.

You may email me at support (at) puzzlebox.info to initiate the RMA process or if you require any additional assistance.

Warmest regards,
Avary Kent
