I know that Sentai footage couldn't allow this to happen but within the show, was there ever an explanation? Could the ship only turn into the Megazord only if the Space Rangers were piloting like it's only coded for them or something?
They needed the Mega Shuttle in order to activate the Megazord sequence which is why the Galaxy Rangers never wound up using it.
They actually could've easily shot original footage of the Astro Megazord fighting if they ever wanted to but they chose not to do that until the teamup.

It needs that helmet to be at full power!

As others have said, the Galaxy Rangers never had the Megashuttle. Bear in mind that the Megaship itself was treated as a decrepit-conditioned museum/relic on board the Terra Venture when Kai hijacked it.
that's factually incorrect. There's a few instances of not all 5 Rangers being involved in the Astro Megazord sequence following them getting their Mega Vehicles.
Also whether the whole team needs to be inside of the cockpit to be at full power is unknown since that's a different Megazord in comparision to the Thundersaurus Megazord.
