Sukhoi and edges can do 3D among others

V, please educate yourself before you again spew your narrow minded views. Your verbal diahrea is digging you deeper into a hole, while your credibility as an intellegent person dwindls faster than I can type. Now I know that no one wants to read this information, but I can't sit idle as you flounder through life. The current documented visual range of the Hubble space telescope is twelve billion light years. Compared to that one million killometers is just about insignifigant. The closest star to earth is 24,000,000,000,000 miles (38,000,000,000,000 kilometers) To measure great distances as these, the unit of light years are used. A light year is the distance that light can travel in a year. Light travels at 186.000 miles per second (300,000 kilometers per second) or 186,000 miles/second X 60 seconds/minute X 24 hours/day X 365 days/year. That equals 5,865,696,000,000 miles/year which is the total distance of one light year. Now........multiply that by twelve billion. And no, the HST cannot see the Apollo landing site. The mirrors in the HST are calibrated to view images at great distances. The moon is so close that it cannot focus on something in that short range. So do me a favor and one day after you tire of playing your simulator games on the computer, do take advantage of its capabilities along with the vast amount of data at your disposal on the internet and research before you make any more statements. Now that you can belie on. Uncontrolably yours, Joe

double post, sorry

Wow, I can't believe this thread is still alive

re: cumn thru

Sure you can see galaxies at that distance but he mentioned a size 1 km long. It seems to me there is a difference in the order of magnitude of the sizes here, don't you agree?

I am a 3D beginner pure and simple.

But, sorry to say Vittorio I have not benefitted from this topic. How I did learn about 3D was go to my field, watch ask questions, then come onto this forum, read, ask a few more questions. Suffice to say doing that I have now learned a great deal.

Marcus, actually it can detail specs of dust floating around planets and the texture of the masses surface. The only thing is that it is calibrated for great distances and is not geared for closer objects. If it were far enough away, yes it could see it. Joe

[:-][:-]I stand corrected then!

I've been busy for a while and haven't kept up with this site, but that this thread is still live amazes me.

All I've got to say is that I enjoy flying and thus I enjoy practicing. I've got to wonder............if you don't like to practice flying.........what are you in this hobby for? Because, once you do master 3D are you just going to give up on the hobby? Or are you going to practice the manuevers you already master? For me that would be boring. The thing that I like about practicing is that you are constantly challenging yourself. This makes the hobby fun. If I were to be struck by lightning or become enlightened in some way and become a real 3D god, the challenge in the hobby would be gone.

So, what does this hobby mean to you, IT flyer?

Maybe if you answer this we can provide some clearer answers.

[8D][size=4]Hi people



[color=red]Hello "cumn thru"

I made fun about "Hubble". I know it can't see like the human eyes. It's not a great (great? no, it's only 2,4 meters of diameter) binoculars, it takes 18 hours to build an "image" of a very far galaxy.

To see your flag on the moon is enough any spy-satellite of yours.

Why can't you film your flag on the moon by one of them?

What he is trying to say Vittorio is that you will belive anything, you do not take time to consider the facts, nor do you listen to the other side of the story. The program may have said this and that, but you have not heard what NASA have to say about the matter.

[8D][size=4]Hi people



[color=red]You haven't understood anything of what I've said again and again.

Please read again from pag. 1

I have no time to waste. Try to understand. It's not very difficult.

[&:]HOVERING AND TORQUE ROLLING ARE VERY DIFFICULT.

[COLOR=GREEN]Vittorio from Italy[sm=sunsmiley.gif]the country of Galileo Galilei (Copernico, Galilei, telescope, do you remember?)

You tell him Joe...!

........Bet that shut him up...!

..............O.K.!......O.K...!.. I'll shut up...!

Argh...he got one in before my bit was posted up....now i'm in for it...[:@]..Dave..!

Vittorio, do you realize how stupid you are making yourself out to be?

Hovering and Torque Rolling are not very difficult...you're just slow.

Nothing is difficult if you get up off your lazy, cowardly ass and practice it.

You are putting too much emphasis on this, you wuss.

I'm glad that I have not contributed to your stupidity.

Why are you so afraid to crash a $99.00 plane, cheapo.

Is it because you are jealous that the USA is more advanced than your country?

Deel with it, tightwaad!

Marcus, you have summed it up in one simple paragraph. Explore the unknown, take a leap of faith, try, try again. Joe

LOL This itallian flyer has to be the biggest joker i have ever seen in any of RCU's Forums

dont forget one of your other greats - musselini[>:]

I was just going to say that Adrian

[8D][size=4]Hi people

[color=blue]Hello "Johnnylightning"



[color=red]It would be easier to see a hippopotamus flying than you reasoning.

Your country has been discovered by CRISTOFORO COLOMBO (Made in Italy).

Saddam has not even one A-bomb. Can your spy-satellites only see CRAP MOUNTAINS? Change the glasses.

[color=green]Vittorio from Italy[sm=sunsmiley.gif]the country of MICHELANGELO (Cappella Sistina: do you know?) not of Jackson Pollock (Action painting artist? No. Sewer painting charlatan).

sorry. proven fact our country was NOT discovered by christopher columbus. you just didnt know we existed until he came. Vikings were actually the first to "discover" america, even then it was already occupied by the native indian. BTW: our "spy" satellites are powerful enough to count the number of pieces you turn your magic into after you try to Torque Roll.

Can we get back to talking 3D??

sean

Christoforo was MADE????

I am surprised at how long this thread has been perpetuated. Maybe we can start placing bets as to how much longer it goes on for. I reckon at one dollar a pop we'll collect enough bets to award one lucky reader a 40% Extra or Cap. Of course, Italian flyer would not qualify to win because he would never fly the damn thing. And that would be a shame for sure.

As for the whole Columbus discovering America thing, everybody knows it was Leif Erickson who discovered north america in the late tenth century. It is elementary. Italian flyer is either confused about the facts or he hangs out with Iraq's former minister of information.

Oh well, it is time for me to go out to the field and bend some balsa while I practice, practice, practice my rude rendition of 3D.

My mama always told me eating too much lasagne will rot your brain

I havn't looked at Vittorios cry for attention since the first page so could someone give me an update. Can Vittorio Torque Roll yet? I read several times that he doesn't have time to practice but he seems to have a lot of time to post here. Since this thread has started I have practiced on G2 and now I can Torque Roll indefinately on that and with my foamie electric I get about two rotations consistantly so I know it is a matter of time till I get it and then move on to a bigger plane.

Vittorio here is the secret. Practice,practice,practice. When you get frustrated (which you will) post some of your nonsense here or build something and then go practice some more. All of a sudden it will come to you and you'll be able to do it. That's my secret.

Torque rolls are EASY!!!

just build left thrust to help the torque, fly straight and level and full power!!

No need to use alierons!![&:]
