Anyone know of a good use for the Quest silo launchers? A few years ago, I bought a bunch of sets from a toy store that was clearing them out. I think I paid 4 bucks for each of them and got at least five sets. Each set had a couple of the RTF plastic rockets and a silo launch pad with controller. Sadly, none were the coolest (IMO), the Little Joe, but I think I got at least one of every other one they made.
Now I've got a bunch of these silo launch pads that never did work very well so my question is, is there any useful purpose these launchers can be put to? I'm getting into the MMX stuff slowly, but I'm going to build my own GSE for it, since these aren't the greatest. I suppose the controllers can be re-purposed for my homemade launch system, but is it worth doing?
