# Motor6D

Roblox Engine API class from Roblox Studio 0.744.0.7441077 (version-7aaa6838d36c4448).

- Inherits from, nearest first: [Motor](https://rapi.sleaze.dev/classes/Motor.md), [JointInstance](https://rapi.sleaze.dev/classes/JointInstance.md), [Instance](https://rapi.sleaze.dev/classes/Instance.md), [Object](https://rapi.sleaze.dev/classes/Object.md)
- Memory category: BaseParts
- HTML page: https://rapi.sleaze.dev/classes/Motor6D/
- Roblox documentation: https://create.roblox.com/docs/reference/engine/classes/Motor6D

Creates an animatable joint between two `BaseParts`. Superseded by [`AnimationConstraint`](https://rapi.sleaze.dev/classes/AnimationConstraint.md) for avatar/character rigs. Motor6D is no longer used by default for player characters when `AvatarJointUpgrade` is enabled.

## Properties

### ChildName

```luau
Motor6D.ChildName: string = ""
```

- Tags: Not scriptable, Read only, Read capabilities: Physics

Read-only name of the joint's child part, mirroring the [`Name`](https://rapi.sleaze.dev/classes/Instance.md) of [`Part1`](https://rapi.sleaze.dev/classes/JointInstance.md).

### ParentName

```luau
Motor6D.ParentName: string = ""
```

- Tags: Not scriptable, Read only, Read capabilities: Physics

Read-only name of the joint's parent part, mirroring the [`Name`](https://rapi.sleaze.dev/classes/Instance.md) of [`Part0`](https://rapi.sleaze.dev/classes/JointInstance.md).

### EnableSkinning
