Grats, OP - you're starting a wonderful journey.
There is a lot of advice that could be given - more than would be prudent for a single thread reply.
My best advice is this - Have fun and taker your time. If you're stuck, drop by the forums and ask for some help. If you're stuck and you're frustrated, chill out, take a smoke break, then come to the forums and ask for some help.

is a good place to start for hints and tips. You don't need to complete the tutorials to play, but they will help you get the hang of how the flight model works and start to learn where some key buttons are.
A couple of tips:
1) Never fly what you cannot afford to rebuy. When your ship is destroyed you have to pay 'insurance' to get it back of 5% of the total cost. If you're short you may well end up back in the sidewinder
2) Make sure the 'boost' button is nowhere near the 'deploy landing gear' button. Bad things happen.

Or the rank, or the mats, or the big ships. Just enjoy yourself and let it come to you.

Just watched the whole video great advert for the game! I think a lot of people get side tracked by the game play, when the actually Stella Galaxy engine is genius...
I love this game

True, and of course as long as you have fun your good. No better reward the game can give you then fun.
Amazing video!
Where can I buy this game?

Don't start that again! Positive thread is positive. And that is quite a moving video. Really helps in taking a step back, and appreciating the beauty of the game, instead of just focusing on the negativity regarding content.

Welcome, and unbind the "Jettison All" button.
Video created by my good friend, Crusina-Luachra on the Xbox... stunning work [up]

Hello, welcome and have fun! Dont get lost chasing after distant goals, just make sure every time you play you have a fun time!
Hi and welcome, first of all don't get discouraged by all the negative threads over here, sure the game has it's flaws but still is awesome and well you can always pay us a visit on the Xbox Forum, just sayin' and second prepare for something entirely different to any other game, Elite is special at it's own way and soon you'll find out
I thought I was good with the camera, but I think that person has me beat.
Great video, and a reminder of why I play this game in the first place.
Also a reminder that I need to get out and see more of the things, and do less of the grinds, though those are almost done.
