Watch A Raven Do Battle With An RC Aeroplane

Dogfight! Bird fight? Whatever it is, this clip imparts three important lessons: 1. Respect birds’ space. 2. Always put a camera on your RC plane. 3. Our pale blue dot planet might just be some cosmic raven’s terrifying eyeball. [Neatorama]

    This happens occasionally when I’m flying model RC. The trick is to pull a loop on the bird and come at it from behind. Freaks the bird out and it leave you alone for the rest of the session.

    See, this would never have happened if he’d been flying an RC heli!

    Or, it might have, just it wouldn’t have ended well.
