**Price:** $949 per sensor

## Requirements
To operate a FliteGrid sensor, you need:
* **Location in the US** — The network is US-only at launch. Do not purchase if you plan to deploy outside the US.
* **Clear sky view** — The sensor needs line-of-sight to the sky. Rooftops, balconies, and elevated outdoor spaces work best.
* **Internet connection** — A wired Ethernet connection (the sensor uses PoE).
* **Power** — Delivered via the PoE cable, so no separate power outlet is needed at the sensor location (just at the PoE injector/router).
No technical expertise is required for setup.
## Cancellation, Returns & Refunds
**Cancellation:** Orders can be cancelled for a full refund up until shipment. Email with your order number.
**Returns:** Orders may be returned within 30 days of delivery. A restocking fee and return shipping costs apply. Email within 30 days of delivery.
**Refunds:** Full refund (minus restocking fee and shipping for returns) to the original payment method. Crypto payments are refunded in US dollar value at time of payment. Refunds are processed after receipt and inspection of returned product.
**Bonus points:** Any bonus promotional reward points are forfeited in full upon cancellation or return.
Refunds and returns apply only to products purchased directly from [flitegrid.io](https://www.flitegrid.io).
