Tho YT 1300 only has 1 agility, it has 13 combined hull/shields, and can take evade actions, because evade icon on action bar due to evade title, and has Jyn on biggest ship, so that gives focus tokens to make toughest ship, so that Jyn on tough ship harder to take out.

Jan Ors on U Wing produces gives Evade tokens

YT 1300, Jyn can dump tokens to Rey on YT 2400 to store focus

Despite the YT-1300s 360 degree turret, Jyn Erso will only trigger if enemy ships are within the printed front firing arc on the ship's base card. It's the same restriction imposed on pilot Rey's ability and Finn crew. So you would want your YT-1300 to be a jouster to get Jyn's action reliably. Currently, the best way to accomplish that on the YT-1300 is to take the TFA title that gives you the 3 bank sloop and Kanan Jarrus crew to pull it off without the stress (the timing of his ability is clarified in the new FAQ: https://images-cdn.fantasyflightgames.com/filer_public/fb/fb/fbfb6053-32de-4034-a0a4-c2829e190928/x-wing_faq_v431.pdf).

Thanks for pointing that out.

Your fix isnt workable in this list, because not enough points in this list to do your fix.

Also without the evade title, the YT would be a somewhat semi fragile jouster.

A better fix would be to swap, put Jan Ors on YT 1300, and Jyn on the Blue Pilot U Wing

Tho Jyn would be somewhat semi easier to kill on the U Wing, and tho U Wing, does not K turn, does not have the best dogfighting jousting Dial, Jyn's ability, U Wings 3 attack dice, 2 agility, 8 combined Hull, shields, will help Jyn, U Wing be a ok attacker, defender, Jouster.

But Either way, whether Swap Jan, Jyn around,or not, there just is not enough points to fix it like you suggest, primarily because Kanan Jarrus cost points. Kanan Jarrus would have to cost 0, just like chopper, in order to stick him next to Jyn, effect your solution.

Also FCS, Jyn on the U Wing, makes Jyn on U Wing a ok Jouster.

Whats the best way to play this list as far as rock, debris, etc, placement, and set up, formation, when to separate, what to do for the first 1,2,3 turns, rounds, etc?

Regardless of the amount of shields and hull provided, I don't think it will work, as it looks slow and not very offencive. Also, you can't have two Chopper Crews - he's unique, not limited.

I suggest you use a squadron builder to avoid such accidents.

As for flying system, you can try it out on the XWing benchmark. https://ynot6517.github.io/bench/# the AI is not very smart, but if you take a list that is easy to fly, then it's ok to test. I usually test against quad-TLT.
