Given the controls -1 to 1 for pitch yaw and roll, the following c++ code applies the controls as a torque then limits the angular velocity which eventually changes the 3D rotation of an object.

```c++
constexpr Vec AIR_CONTROL_TORQUE = Vec(130, 95, 400);
constexpr float CAR_MAX_ANG_SPEED = 5.5f;

torque = (controls.pitch * dirPitch_right * AIR_CONTROL_TORQUE.x) + (controls.yaw * dirYaw_up * AIR_CONTROL_TORQUE.y) + (controls.roll * dirRoll_forward * AIR_CONTROL_TORQUE.z);

Body.applyTorque(_rigidBody.m_invInertiaTensorWorld.inverse() * (torque - damping) * CAR_TORQUE_SCALE);

// ...

if (angVel.length2() > (CAR_MAX_ANG_SPEED * CAR_MAX_ANG_SPEED))
	angVel = angVel.normalized() * CAR_MAX_ANG_SPEED;
```

From a starting rotation and angular velocity, determine the sequence of inputs to reach a desired rotation and come to a full stop in the fewest number of steps.

Implement it within the following testing environment:
