I am hoping to start getting into building real robots, specifically smaller ones like Antweights. Anyone have any suggestions on the first step of getting started?

This gives a general overview on what you'll be getting into as well as how to construct one
https://bristolbotbuilders.com/guides.html
If you're in the US, its mostly the same as UK. You just have a little more weight if you're building an ant and a little less if you're building a beetle.
Here's a link to the US rules

Late reply soz
Feel free to get in touch with us at BBB if you need a hand - we're stocking some little ant kits on the store now too :)
