If you use BalaceCar, you can make a two-wheeled inverted pendulum robot with M5StickC.
You can maneuver, tune parameters and monitor it over the network with BalanceCarMonitor.
By using BalanceCarMonitor, you can do the following.
You can maneuver BalanceCar with the cross key and also move it diagonally by inputting the cross key at the same time.
You can set the tuning parameters of BalanceCar.
If you want to change the parameters, you can set it with this tool without write the software to M5StickC.
You can check the status of BalanceCar. This makes it easier to tune parameters of it.
BalanaceCar requires the following libraries.

https://github.com/bblanchon/ArduinoJson
BALA-C is required.
Clone this repository and go into it.
git clone https://github.com/tes2840/BalanceCar
cd BalanceCarPlease configure Config.h to match your network environment.
//Network setting.
const char SSID[] = ""; // Wi-Fi SSID name.
const char PASSWORD[] = ""; // Wi-Fi password.
const byte BALAC_IP_ADDR[4] = {192, 168, 11, 101}; // IP Address of BalanceCar.
const byte BALAC_GATEWAY[4] = {192, 168, 11, 1}; // Gateway of BalanceCar.
const byte BALAC_SUBNET[4] = {255, 255, 255, 0}; // Subnetmask of BalanceCar.
const int BALAC_PORT = 50008; // Port of BalanceCar.
const byte PC_ADDR[] = {192, 168, 11, 100}; // IP address of the data destination PC.
const int PC_PORT = 50007; // Port of the data destination PC.Build and write to the M5StickC.
Turn on the switch of BALA-C then the LED lights up.
Press and hold Button B while BALA-C is tilted sideways.
Wait until the LED on the M5StickC lights up and "Stand" is displayed on the screen.
When "Stand" is displayed, keep the BALA-C in the inverted position and wait until the LED lights up again.
When the LED lights up, the inversion control will start.
