Import Tips & Compliance

• Provide motor assembly diagrams proving sole use with <18.65W RC motors to prevent misclassification

• Ensure RoHS compliance labeling for electronics parts; common issue is missing origin certificates

• Avoid bulk packaging without itemized invoices—customs requires per-part wattage verification
