Fine tips! Once you can afford an Adder (* or a Hauler, see comments) plus the exploration essentials (A class Frame Shift Drive, size 3B or better fuel scoop, advanced discovery scanner and planetary scanner, D grade everything else, ditch the weapons), there is pretty good risk free money to be made from exploration. Makes a nice change of pace if you are feeling antisocial. Keep an eye out for water worlds, ammonia worlds or Earth likes which make nice bonus if you scan them.

A-rated Anaconda pilot here:
The game is much more fun in a Sidewinder when you are still a little space ant and know nothing. It just starts feeling emptier and emptier after that.

Dude... I learn so much watching your videos about how to be a good YouTuber. You're awesome! :)

What i like most about this plan is the "I survive" part it centers around.
Don´t get me wrong, i am not against taking risks if there is a chance they pay off.
But some of those wanted NPCs will have ships way better equipped than a new player usually has.

That moment when you expected something to ram into the Sidewinder at the end.

Great vid, Yamiks! It's always good to see information put out for new players.

For those who want around 5 MIL an hour, I'd recommend looking up Road to Riches on reddit. It's all exploration, and the guide shows all the systems that have earth like world's, water world's, and metal rich planets. I got python in a day, and the risk nonexistent! Seriously, if your new to the game try it out, you will not be dissapointed

This is scary how this resembles my first weeks in elite before i found your ancient ruins guide and i had enough money for a diamondback explorer and fit. great video yamiks!

[Keldrath]

Worked wonderfully for me, got upgraded to a cobra and saved a bit more after that. No clue where to go or what i can do after that but this was a quick way to make some starting cash.

I usually do transportation missions to ramp up money
I usually make from 20-200k from 1 mission. Jump to 1-2 systems, land in the specific station, and thats it, easy money without abusing the system.

if your gonna do it in a E rate 'winder' you may want to consider turning on 'report crimes against me' if you want the cops to bail you out of trouble - but yet again leaving it off teaches you to manage pips and control your thrusters accordingly!

[csfelfoldi]

Last time I "clear save"d I just flown to the local nav beacon and shot a few pirates with the cops, got enough money for a viper III in like 10 minutes. The difficulty lies in the transition from small to medium then to large ships.

Also the Killing sensor help get higher Bountys ^^ The most expensiv with "4 Km range" if my recommendation ;J

Ah I remember flying in RES locations around the place in a sidey. Something exciting about it.

Even with an adder with just cargo racks you can get a nice profit from this loop.

What's up with the little black dragon looking thing just before 0:20 ?

[admiralgeneralnn]

After you get about 2, 5 Mil outfit your sidewinder for Exploration and do the Road to Richies ....you should have about 50Mil in few hours

Hi I have seen this topic covered buy a few others, but your's is the far more entertaining!
good shit!, keep it up!

Bounty hunt in Sidewinder until you can afford Eagle then bounty hunt some more. Once you get enough to get Asp Explorer fitted out for exploration buy it and google "road to riches". Do that until you can afford Orca. Use the Orca for passenger missions taking massed people without names until you can afford Anaconda. Fit Anaconda out just like the orca and proceed to print money until FDev nerf it again.
