As has been remarked already you pretty much need Recon V to fly the force recons effectively. For WH expeditions you could, as you suggested, use a core probe launcher and hope that they're at a site.

Get a second account. And in my experience you do not need a cov ops cloak (or even a cloak) on the DPS ship. If the probes don't warn em your ship wont either.
Not everyone can be bothered, is able or is interested in running a second account though.
One of the biggest annoyances for me about this game is how unlike other MMOs where multi-boxing simply augmented your abilities, in Eve you practically require a second account unless you fancy flying blind into low/0.0 sec, gimping combat ships to fit probers, etc.
To answer the OPs specific question though: Pilgrim is imo one of the best 100% solo ships.

You have to be kidding me. You only require alts if you want to catch as many people as possible while solo, or if you're afraid of losing an internet spaceship. You know this is a MMO, right?
Playing with your alts probably doesn't fall under the definition of MMO to be honest.
Also, I don't know how you've extrapolated that I'm afraid of losing ships - I couldn't give a crap what I lose so long as it's not as a result of something colossally stupid, but that doesn't alter the fact (imo) that alts/multi-boxing is more essential than it should be. How many games can you think of where simply jumping into a new area could mean almost certain death unless you scouted it out beforehand with a seperate character?
For one thing you can't train alts simultaneously to become decent probers/scouts/whatever so you either progress your main or have >1 account. This is the first MMO I've played where I've felt crippled by NOT having more than 1 account, frankly.
