A motor controller includes a first control circuit, a second control circuit, a determination circuit, and a command circuit. The first control circuit outputs a first control value based on a rule base from a command value of an angular velocity and a measured value of an angular velocity. The second control circuit outputs a second control value based on a learned model from the command value of the angular velocity and the measured value of the angular velocity. The determination circuit determines a state based on at least the second control value. The command circuit acquires and outputs a control command value from the first control value and the second control value based on a result determined by the determination circuit.
