Re: Legality of Mounting a Camera on the Robot?

[R67]
Any decorations that involve broadcasting a signal to/from the Robot, such as remote cameras, must be approved by FIRST (via e-mail to frcteams@usfirst.org) prior to the event and tested for communications interference at the venue. Such devices, if reviewed and approved, are excluded from Rule [R55].

Start with that; even if you aren't broadcasting, but you have the mount in place (and the mount is legal), it's a good idea.
