Default RE: AMA question

It's a potentially dangerous situation. Big planes and small planes don't mix well. The R/C pilots MUST avoid full size planes at all costs. The full size pilot MUST be aware that there are model planes in the vicinity. If you think your plane is hard to see, try looking down at it amid the ground clutter from a full size moving at 100 mph. The only possible way I'd continue to fly there is to ALWAYS have a spotter, and possibly an aircraft radio scanner to listen in on the pilot's intentions. Smoke bombs to signal "airspace/runway clear" would be a help, too.
