# Next Steps

You are now familiar with the RoboCon kit! We recomend that you now start thinking about your strategy for how you will win. Design your robot in little steps, and test along the way - getting a prototype up and rolling is the best way to ensure your robot will be achieving your goals by the time the competition rolls around! So best of luck, and don't delay - you've got some engineering to do...
