The better balancer should always be robot 2. Arranging this before the match will be critical. The timing that when robot 1 should get on the ramp, what happens when a robot breaks down and what hand signals/lights/flags mean what are the kind of things that need to be arranged before hand. I am just thinking that there needs to be a signal that indicates that one of the participating robot is unable to perform or aborting the cooperation balance.
LED message signs?
