IRCHA Announces “Reloaded” Theme for the 2025 IRCHA Jamboree

MUNCIE, IN – November 16, 2024 – The International Radio Controlled Helicopter Association (IRCHA) is thrilled to announce the theme for the 2025 IRCHA Jamboree: “Reloaded.” This theme represents a fresh, bold approach to one of the most iconic events in the RC helicopter community, happening August 3-10, 2025, at the Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA) International Aeromodeling Center (IAC) in Muncie, Indiana.

The IRCHA Jamboree Reloaded theme signals an exciting shift towards a new style of Jamboree—one that is driven by member feedback and designed to deliver an unforgettable experience. Attendees can look forward to a dynamic blend of exhilarating fun fly activities and cutting-edge exhibitions showcasing the latest trends in the RC helicopter hobby.

A standout feature of this year’s branding is the irreverent and fun twist on tradition. For example, the event’s logo playfully inverts the iconic helicopter image to depict it mowing grass—a nod to the lighthearted and creative spirit behind this year’s Jamboree.

A Jamboree for Everyone
This year, IRCHA is planning to invite the entire community to join the excitement. If the pilots attending are going to fly hard, they deserve an audience! The goal is to bring new people into the world of RC helicopters, inspire kids with the thrill of aviation, and create a truly welcoming atmosphere for everyone to enjoy. Whether you’re a seasoned pilot, a hobbyist, or someone simply curious about the world of RC helicopters, the Jamboree Reloaded will have something for you.

Celebrating IRCHA and the Jamboree
While the Jamboree has been a flagship event for IRCHA, the “Reloaded” theme also serves as an opportunity to create greater clarity between the organization, IRCHA, and its premier event, the Jamboree. IRCHA is more than just the Jamboree—it’s an organization dedicated to growing and supporting the RC helicopter community year-round. By emphasizing this distinction, we’re setting the stage for IRCHA to expand its role and deliver even more value to its members through resources, initiatives, and community-building efforts.

“We are incredibly excited about the Reloaded theme,” said Angel Rojas, IRCHA President. “It reflects the transformative direction we’re taking as an organization and as an event. This year’s Jamboree will not only be an unforgettable celebration of RC helicopters but also a turning point in how IRCHA serves the community. And by opening our doors to new audiences, we hope to inspire the next generation of RC helicopter pilots.”
