The facility will supply American-made electric drone motors following a new FCC mandate.
HALLANDALE BEACH, Fla.—EU Motors Sp. z o.o., a global manufacturer of high-performance electric drone motors, recently opened its new production facility, EU Motors USA, in Hallandale Beach, the company said in a release.
With state-of-the-art automated production facilities in Poland and now, Hallandale Beach, Florida, EU Motors stated it is “one of the largest drone motor manufacturers outside of China.”

This expansion comes two months after the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) issued Public Notice DA 25-1086 on December 22, 2025, adding drone motors and other critical components to its national security “Covered List.” The mandate requires all drone manufacturers seeking FCC aircraft approval to use U.S.-manufactured electric motors, the release stated.
Facing a sudden regulatory hurdle, U.S. drone manufacturers—including existing EU Motors customers working on domestic projects—encountered a critical supply chain problem and urgently requested domestic manufacturing. EU Motors responded immediately, airlifting production machinery directly from its high-tech assembly lines in Poland to its new Florida facility to meet compliance requirements.
“We are so excited to produce drone motors in America,” said James Buchheim, chairman of EU Motors, in the release. “Our mission is to bring our high quality, reliable, and affordable electric motors to the United States. We were dreaming of this day for a while, and the FCC requirement just accelerated our dream. We flew tons of machines by air from our Polish assembly line to our new facility in Florida. We are buying local copper and other materials. This allows us to provide our U.S. customers with FCC compliant, high quality domestic motors without tariffs.”

The Hallandale Beach facility is now operational, with a reported initial capability of 5,000 motors per month and an expansion roadmap to meet growing demand. The first units rolling off the U.S. assembly line during the last week of February were the 3115 Motors, heavily used in FPV drones, and the 1505 Motors, designed specifically for lightweight ISR UAS/ drones. EU Motors USA plans to continuously increase manufacturing capacity and introduce additional motor models domestically, the company stated in the release.
Backed by its massive parent operations in Poland—capable of manufacturing more than 100,000 motors monthly using fully automated robotic lines and in-house stators—EU Motors brings “world-class innovation to U.S. shores,” the release said.
Dedicated in-house engineering and an advanced electromagnetic simulation team are said to enable a continuous development cycle, keeping the company’s motors at the leading edge of performance and endurance. The flagship 3115 Motor, for example, is said to have undergone five distinct design revisions in 2025 alone to continue perfecting performance.
“EU Motors USA is shipping its latest American-made motors to customers nationwide, ensuring U.S. drone manufacturers remain compliant, competitive, and powered by the best technology in the sky,” the release said.
