60	60	The first SES system used a variety of different Hitec RC servos, and brackets were designed to adapt these servos to to the Erector Set. Although a standard RC servo case size existed for many Hitec servos, several series of brackets had to be created to accommodate different servo sizes (micro, standard and large). Some brackets were designed to have one specific application (for example the body panels for a specific hexapod design) while most were meant to be as modular as possible. In all around 70 brackets were created for the V1 SES system. Disregarding the Hitec RC servo-specific brackets, the remaining brackets from the V1 can mostly be used for the V2 system. The new Lynxmotion Smart Servos were designed to be used with the v1 bracket system in order to create a modular robotic building system called the Lynxmotion Servo Erector Set (S.E.S.) v2. It is therefore entirely possible to create a new robot which uses elements from both the V1 and V2 systems. The SES V1 provided an option for 1:1 external gearing, and the V2 system also includes the option for adding external gears (1:1 and 1:3) which can be mounted to the servo itself as well as using an external gearbox bracket. Gears use a standard pitch of 16, allowing them to be compatible with other spur gears and gear racks of the same pitch.

66	66	There is a variety of software available for the erector set V1 (SSC-32 and SSC-32U RC servo controllers) and V2 (smart servos). Software for the v1 (not including legacy software) include FlowBotics Studio (and a variety of Windows-compatible apps), FlowArm PLTW, the SSC-32 servo sequencer.

74	74	The SES mounting pattern was based on two holes which are used for mounting objects to a Hitec standard servo horn such as the Hitec HS-422. The holes are meant for 2-56 (imperial) threaded screws. Screws which are 1/4 inch long are able to hold together two brackets with enough thread protruding to add a 2-56 nut. In most situations only two screws are needed, though four screws can be used. The mounting pattern has evolved to include three variations:
