Detailed Description

This is a convience class that will configure a 6DoF spring constraint with 2 angular and 1 linear (with a spring) axes of freedom such that it can behave like a wheel and axel.

Simulating a Wheel and Axel is the primary use for this constraint. The 2 angular axes that it gives you are the axis for rotating the child object around the parents axis (aka turning the wheel), and the child rotating around it's own local axis (aka spinning the wheel for motion). The linear axis acts as suspension (which is where the spring comes in).

In a normal vehicle use case, Axis1 would be the vertical axis of the main body. Axis2 would be the X axis of the main body, assuming it is pointed along the Z axis.
