So I just started playing! I've been grinding my way through some L1 missions, my Kestrel takes a bit of a pounding in some of them and despite my best efforts to kite I'm having to warp out a lot.
I've been concentrating on my learning skills but they're mostly lvl 3/4 now so I'm wanting to beef up my combat abilities a bit. So what skills should I aim for to improve my Kestrel. I can't fit a 4th launcher on at the minute which is obviously something I'd like to remedy! I've got a BCU now.

Better off using a destroyer for lvl 1 missions.

Are you limited by CPU or Power Grid?
Do a little research on these skills:
Engineering
Electronics
Weapon Upgrades
Advanced Weapon Upgrades
Also, consider a Power Diagnostic System, if Powergrid is the problem.
You may also want to look at Shield Management and Shield Operation
I suggest getting every skill mentioned in this post (with the exception of advanced weapon upgrades) to level 4 ASAP, whatever you happen to be flying.

ah the kestrel, ive been working some level 1 missions as well. i have about 2 mill sp. eh its alright 1 mill is in missile launchers mostly heavies and they ones to make missiles better like bombardment etc. but ive noticed in level 1 missions that most of the guys just plain suck. heres my mission running kestrel set up. just try to make it look the same if ud like.
hi's
===================
4 - limos rocket launchers (they seem to eat them alive very quickly believe it or not)
mid's
===================
1 sheild booster (named)
1 ab (named)
1 damp tech 2 (specific for what ur fighting, usually thermal or explosive it seems for me at explosive u can get 75% resist so those pesky explosive missiles dont mess with me hehe)
lows'
==================
2 inertial stabilizers (go fast)
so far i havnt had a problem in level 1 missions, but i did get poped last night in a 4/10 complex with my friend who had a rifter, we were doing so good till they all targeted me at the same time)

Kessie is an awesome ship. Firstly, if you really like it get a blueprint. Then with basic mining skills (and reprocessing of useless rat loot) you can make them all day long. Build requirements are very minor (rarest thing being Nocxium and Zydrine, but you only need 1 unit of each)
Ok my setup for you (Doesnt require extreme skills).
3x Standard Missle launchers 1 X Standard Rocket laucher
1-AB 1mw 1- Small shield Xtender 2 Shield Resists (Rat specific, Ie Guristas = Thermal and Explosive)
1 PDU 1 BCS or 1 BCS and 1 Inertia Stabilizer
