Try this:
// Make sure that front and back clip planes are specified as a
// virtual distance from the eye
view.setFrontClipPolicy(View.VIRTUAL_EYE);
view.setBackClipPolicy(View.VIRTUAL_EYE);
double backClipDistance = 5 * radius;
view.setBackClipDistance( backClipDistance );
// (back / front) must be < 3000 to avoid loosing z-buffer resolution.
// The larger the number, the more the z-buffer space will be used
// for objects in the front of the scene. If you loose z-buffer
// resolution for objects at the back of your scene, decrease this
// number. If your objects are getting front clipped, adjust both
// the front and back clip distances to keep this ratio.
view.setFrontClipDistance( backClipDistance / 600.0 );
