Few years ago, I launched my 1/7.5 scale ASK13 into a gaggle of kites.
There must have been well over a dozen of them circling in a same thermal.
Couple of the birds made few aggressive moves toward my plane,  attacking
it, but wiggling my wings turned them away.  The plane had white top, blue
bottom fuse and white wing.  A memorable moment and fligtht in my R/C
Soaring career.
