Unusual Machines (UMAC) signed a definitive agreement,effective June 12, to acquire Rotor Lab, an Australian developer and manufacturer of electric motors and propulsion systems for unmanned aerial systems. The proposed acquisition is substantially an all-stock deal valued at $7M Founded in 2022, Rotor Lab is a trusted provider of high-performance motors for both commercial and defense drone applications. Its product line includes precision-wound electric motors across multiple classes, from sub-400W units for small UAS to high-power motors supporting larger rotary and fixed-wing platforms. Unusual Machines and Rotor Lab have already been working together for nearly a year, co-developing a family of motors including the 2207, 2807, and 3220 sizes. These motors will be among the first to enter production at Unusual Machines’ new U.S.-based motor factory in Orlando, Florida, which is expected to begin operations in September 2025. The closing of the acquisition is contingent on satisfaction of customary closing conditions by the parties including the negotiation of an employment agreement with current Rotor Lab CEO Andrew Simpson, and required regulatory approvals. The existing Rotor Lab facility in Canberra will continue operations and serve as Unusual Machines’ engineering center for motor design, prototyping, and low-to-medium volume production. These capabilities will complement the company’s expanding U.S. manufacturing footprint and act as a second source for supply chain resiliency.
