I suppose that would work, but my first impression is that, for support purposes, FTC will try to limit their official support to the approved devices for at least this year, and you would be on your own if you have any issues. There is a new sensor input module that is supposed to interface to custom sensors, and I think that you may be handicapping your team by not using the phone, with its built in sensors and faster CPU and memory.
This is only my personal opinion, and YMMV!
