So I want to build my very first mech but im at a loss at what the hell is going on at the mechlab...

Nothing is properly explained and all I see is a bunch of red over all the items I can pick...

What mech do you guys recommend to start with?...

Well you're a Legendary Founder so you have 4 mechs to start with. I'd probably go with the Hunchback or Catapult to test things out.

Everything is red because the mech is loaded up to the max and can't hold anymore equipment. Click on the item you're interested in and it'll tell you why you can't equip it, it's probably because of one or more of the following:

• Not enough tonnage left over
  
• Not enough critical slots
  
• No hardpoint available

Each mech comes maxed out on weight, so you'll have to start stripping things off of the mechs before you can start adding different things on to the mech.

Or upgrading to Endo-Steel, Ferro-Fibrous, etc to cut down on weight.

No tutorials in-game yet, but there are plenty of tutorials on the forums.

Scroll down to the Mechlab video. It's quite in-depth and should get you started.
