Welcome to RCPinas.com — the home of the RC hobby in the Philippines. These Terms govern your use of the platform. By creating an account or using the site, you agree to these Terms.
Don’t use RCPinas to:
You keep ownership of everything you post (photos, posts, build logs, listings, etc.). By posting, you grant RCPinas a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, display, and distribute that content within the platform for the purpose of running the community. You can remove your content at any time; cached or syndicated copies may persist briefly while caches expire.
You are responsible for what you post. Don’t upload content you don’t own the rights to (e.g. someone else’s product photos used without permission).
The blue Verified check next to a username means a moderator reviewed a government ID and live selfie submitted by that user. It is a signal of identity, not a guarantee of trustworthiness or business legitimacy. Always exercise judgement when transacting, even with verified members.
We may revoke a Verified badge at any time if we discover the verification was fraudulent or the user later violates these Terms.
Listings on the Partners page (hobby shops, brands, distributors, venues, media) reflect partnerships approved by our team. Approval means we accepted the partner’s application; it does not imply RCPinas endorses every product, service, event, or claim made by the partner.
User-submitted RC spots, hobby shops, and events are reviewed by moderators before going public. We may decline submissions that are inaccurate, unsafe, or duplicate existing entries. Once published, accuracy of details (hours, addresses, prices) is the submitter’s responsibility.
The AR Size Preview is a visual tool for estimating real-world scale of an RC. Sizes shown are based on manufacturer specifications and may vary slightly from physical products. Use it as a guide, not a measurement.
RCPinas is provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of viruses or other harmful components. Member contributions reflect the views of their authors, not RCPinas.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, RCPinas, its operators, and contributors are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of the platform — including but not limited to lost data, lost profits, or losses from member-to-member transactions. Our total liability will not exceed PHP 1,000 or the amount you paid us (if any) in the 12 months before the claim, whichever is greater.
You agree to indemnify and hold RCPinas harmless from claims, damages, and expenses arising from your content, your conduct on the platform, or your violation of these Terms.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of the Philippines. Any dispute will be resolved in the courts of Metro Manila, unless local consumer-protection law requires otherwise.
We may update these Terms as the platform evolves. The “Last updated” date at the top reflects the most recent change. Continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
