What about holding a button and the robot will automatically adjust itself to get into horizontal, and if it is in horizontal, it'll stay at 0?

Yes, that's what we've been talking about. Simply said, the robot would sense if it is horizontal with a gyro or accelerometer (or both) and then stop moving.

I was giving an alternative to that in case the sensor implementation was too complicated, or as a backup if it never worked out, or if balancing was easy enough for the drivers to do it semi-manually.
