in the pits

i have a few questions about wut we can "play with" in the pits. some of them are given nos but i just wanna check
first off can me make a tiny robot (like a 1 foot square bot) equipped with a camera to drive around the pits, we wud steer it from a monitor at our pit, and possibly record it and such.

the next few im sure arent allowed but i wanna be sure
can we fly a r/c blimp with a camera to get a birds eye view of the pits?
can we put giant green halogens on our bot to distract the sensors on other bots?
can we use a hovercraft (made on many small hover "pods") to transport our robot, the hovercrafts will make it extremely easy to move and such. actually at nationals we saw little tug robots used to pull their main bot so i think this one might be allowed.
can we have a camera on the bot that records battles ,wireless it transmits to our pit where we will have a tv/vcr.
if i think of anything else ill post it...
