I want to animate UAV motion, when it is moving in a straight line then suddenly turning by 30deg to prevent itself from obstacle ahead. Then again continuing its original straight flight. How can I do this?

It is used for obstacle and collision avoidance with other aircraft/UAVs/terrain. Here my point of focus is lateral motion, where UAV is continuing its flight at same altitude.

I case question is unclear, let me define it by basic kinematics equations:
x(dot) = v*cos(psi) y(dot) = v*sin(psi) psi(dot) = v/R, [v = 100 kts and R=50 NM] R= radius of turn and psi is yaw angle..
Can anyone please guide me to obtain below trajectory using above kinematics equations..
