Narrative:
During uas and chase observer aircraft orbital climb to 7000 MSL ATC (approach) began to issue advisories to a VFR aircraft flying the victor airway and ourselves following the uas to maintain separation. The other traffic called the uas in sight and maneuvered to maintain separation. Later radar data estimated that the VFR traffic came within 0.9 miles of the operating uas while maneuvering to maintain separation.
