Thanks for all the help on here.
Sadly , the game lacks a lot of description and help/tips for newbies ( non game testers and or new to Elite )
At the beginning I found it took a very long time to find information on :
The starter Sidewinder ship already has the best pulse lasers that can be equiped ( ships size small )
* Upgrade your power plant
* Upgrade your shield to a C2
* Sidewinder is really only good against - Eagles, Sidewinders, Asps, Haulers, Addar ( Addar takes a long time to kill as do Combras so good luck )
* Stay away from Vipers, Cobras, Anacondas
interdiction module ( for pulling over wanted crime ) can only be used while in Super travel mode
You must be behind the ship and in range, then click mouse button that the fire group is assigned to.
ie Primary or Secondary, a mini game will start, try to keep the Wanted inside the circle
*Always target the Wanted first before shooting
Warranty module for cross system bounties, once you are in combat mode ( pulled the Wanted over
In a Sidewinder, I have it assigned as secondary ( so hold the right mouse button down while shooting with the left )
* Collect bounties from the political group that hold the bounty.
* Check bounties owed by using the 1 key and checking Transactions on the menu 1 screen, just find a station with that alignment and collect bounty from local police contact.
hope this helps a bit.
