Hello and welcome!

Personally I'd just try to have fun at the start. I think you start in space near one of the Coriolis stations. Try moving around and see how the controls play out for you. There is a basic Sidewinder manual here

Have a quick look for that, and see how you get on.

Cheers, Phos.

Don't spend all your money on cargo if you don't wish to have to start again. Always keep a reserve.

If you want combat then just go for it. The more you do the better you get.

You will die a lot at first.

If you get interdicted and don't want to fight put 4 pips in Eng and boost until you can Supercruise again.

Fly safe.

Basically this. Also try the single player missions, they are a nice basic combat primer.
Ooh, and play around with your control bindings until you get something comfortable. I had boost on a button that I just couldn't get used to when I started and kept laminating myself to the station walls when docking.

Oh yeah...DON'T PANIC!:D
