Why not use the pilots? They have a better view.

Why not the huge camera poles from last year? I don't remember seeing any restrictions on these in the rules, and they helped our team significantly last year.

While the pilots do have a much better view, they will be busy during the match picking up gears and placing them. Plus how will they signal you? They cant yell, you wont be able to hear them. You cant even hear the FTA through the glass before the match starts. Maybe you can use flags or something, but I am sure that FIRST will develop some rule on what pilots con bring into the Airship
