Unusual Machines Inc.

Facebook Instagram LinkedIn X Unusual Machines primarily serves the American drone industry by building and selling drone components.

In February 2024 we acquired FPV market leader Fat Shark, which designs and manufactures ultra-low latency video goggles for drone pilots, and Rotor Riot, a drone-focused e-commerce marketplace backed by one of the largest communities of FPV drone pilots in the world. In short, Fat Shark makes the drone components and Rotor Riot sells them.

We expect demand for drones to continue to grow across all industries, including public safety, enterprise inspection, defense, and eventually drone delivery. While these industries are expanding, legislative changes like the American Securities Drone Act and conflicts like the one in Ukraine are creating significant changes in the manufacturing and supply chains for drones. Recently, the supply chains have been dominated by Chinese companies (reference). We believe the shift toward American manufacturing will create significant demand for a non Chinese based supplier of drone components and represents an opportunity for us to rapidly grow.

Austin Bohlig, Needham & Co

"Trump indicated his intention to push Congress to increase the FY27 U.S. defense budget proposal to $1.5T. . .we expect the entire ecosystem and specifically names under coverage including Unusual Machines Inc. to trade higher as hype around growing budgets increases in the coming months."

Austin Bohlig, Needham & Co

(1/5/26)
"Given Unusual Machines Inc.'s unique positioning as a leading domestic supplier of low-cost, drone components, we see multiple catalysts materializing in 2026 that position the company to outperform. . .2026 could represent a transformational M&A year for Unusual Machines, providing additional tailwinds in 2027."

Austin Bohlig, Needham & Co

(12/23/25)
"The Federal Communications Commission went a step further by also explicitly banning foreign-sourced drone components. . .this ruling is a significant positive inflection for the U.S.-based drone component manufacturers. We view the implications as particularly favorable for Unusual Machines Inc. given its position as a leading domestic supplier of flight-critical drone components."

Barry Sine, Litchfield Hills Research LLC

(11/13/25)
"Unusual Machines Inc. continues to evolve from a drone components manufacturer into a central node in the emerging American drone and vertical take-off and landing ecosystem. This investment enhances strategic optionality, deepens vertical integration and offers a uniquely asymmetric risk-reward profile."

Austin Bohlig, Needham & Co

(11/12/25)
"While the commercial market will take time to ramp as DJI fades out of the U.S., we believe Unusual Machines Inc. has a robust runway of business in the near term with over $16M in bookings that will be shipped through H1/26. Furthermore, with the government shutdown on the cusp of ending, we believe drone procurement activity will pick up meaningfully."

Barry Sine, Litchfield Hills Research LLC

(11/7/25)
"Last night Unusual Machines Inc. made headlines with one of its most substantive quarterly updates to date. . .the company now holds roughly $16M in purchase orders scheduled for delivery through Q2/26. This figure exceeded expectations and does not include the retail business, which we believe is positioned for another strong holiday-driven Q4."
