I tried three of the most spread 3D engines: Away3D, Sandy3D and Papervision3D. Away3D was really nice with some really cool functions. Sandy, from my point of view was better and also had some nice other stuff that were compatible (like a phisics engine). But what it lacket (and I kinda need this) was a Collision Detection algorithm and also particle effects (it did have a nice starfield effect that could do nice stuff). Anyway, I decided to remain at Papervision3D.
I did not have time to work a lot with it yet (just looked over some basic functions), but as far as I could read from other people this is the most advanced 3D engine for flash (at least a free one). Also, I think it has a collision detection algorithm.

Also, I know it is a little hard to start with Papervision3D. There is no real documentation on how to begin (but the functions are very well explained). Also, you can find some nice stuff on how to create a little more advanced things…but no tutorial for a real beginner. So I made a short video tutorial.

Sorry for my bad English, for the not so good sound and also for some mistakes I make…it is my first and I promise I will try to make the next one better.
