• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

The International Space Duck.
I was interested in the altitude limitations in P3D v2.5 so I hit Y then F4 and let it run, all night. I calculated that the climb rate in slew is about 1,000 ft/sec. The next morning the Duck was at altitude 8,263 miles and still going up. What is the limitation on altitude? I don't know.
Is anyone working on space orbital projects? Can we go for a Moon shot? I'm wondering if you could model the Moon and put it into orbit as scenery or even a land-able surface. This has got me quite excited about the possibilities for orbital space travel in P3D.

Can anyone tell me how to stop getting double pictures in a post? The basic uploader is the only thing that works for me and it always does this, it's a bit annoying.

I had thought about using a hosting service but that's just another place I'll have to register and create a password for. I would probably want to find a free web page host and build a small page for the same purpose as I have in the past. I wish my Google drive had that capability.

Thanks for the suggestions but I primarily would like to hear anything about P3D v2.5 and space vehicle development. The image posting question was just an aside.

A free image hosting site that doesn't require registration is postimage.org. I use it all the time!!

Hi Paul,

As you know I don't have P3D, but I'm willing to bet it's 16458 nMile (100.000.000 feet) .
Like in FSX..

Tip: to try in Slew, use Highest SimulationRate so you don't need to run it all night ...LoL
