💥 How Judging Works

Each pilot will be scored by a panel of five judges. The highest and lowest scores are dropped to reduce bias. Scoring breakdown:

  • 90%: Flight performance (technicality, presentation, innovation)

  • 10%: Crowd impact – Can you light up the line?

🚁 Whether you’re a rising talent or a seasoned pro, the IRCHA Cup is your moment to take center stage and show the world what you’ve got.
