Q:1 Scenario: i get first turn... but before first turn i scout move my valk and move flat out....Can i still shoot all weapons as if i didnt move in that same turn?

Q:2 same scenario but after i moved flat out i decide to move flat out again on my first turn, thats ok?

Sure is. the scout move is its own....lack of a better term Turn.

So yes it is perfectly viable to move 48" if you get first turn.

though i think melta vets getting a first turn charge on a vehicle that has not moved is better for you.

So if I move flat out in scout move an get second turn do I still get the save for moving flat out on scout movement?

Yes. Have a look at the Blood Angel FAQ, it tells you how to work out, in general, what the Scout move is - it is essentially a previous turn, before the game starts.

To summarise:

1. You can perform a Flat Out move in the Scouting "phase".
2. If you have first turn, the vehicle may act as normal. The flat out movement from Scouting will not give you a cover save in your opponent's first turn.
3. If you have second turn, the vehicle will get a 4+ cover save in your opponent's first turn.

This is all clarified neatly in the Rulebook FAQ

I always move my Valkyries/Vendettas flat out during their scout move if they're starting on the table, even if they end up still in my deployment zone, just for that 4+ cover save if my opponent gets first turn

Thanks alot guys! much clearer now!

Basically, imagine Scouts as a first turn in which you can only move
