how does this stick work playing elite dangerous? any suggestions if this one isnt very good for the game?

I own this T-flight HOTAS X by Thrustmaster and I play it on Elite Dangerous. It works very well, especially after you adjust the tension knob on the bottom to you liking. It has plenty of buttons to do what you need it to do, the biggest boon, it Elites keymapping to be able to press combo buttons for different effects.

Can you detach the throttle but still use it? Say if I wanted to mount the throttle on the left arm of my chair, and the flight stick on the right?

The throttle handle is designed for the left hand. Use it on the right and your thumb wont be able to access the buttons.

Does this have yaw control? As in, can you twist the stick clockwise/counterclockwise?

In short, yes. Long answer: There are two options for yaw control. The stick has twist functionality for yaw. For a second option, there is a two way rocker/lever bar behind the throttle assembly (where the tips of your fingers rest).

Would this work on Star Citizen alpha?

This is a great buy for Star Citizen's. One of the top reasons if not my number one reason for getting it. Tested and works great, surprisingly made well!
