I like it Steve. I really like the simplicity of the first version as well.
The second version reminds me of something I've been working on for a new
model:

The cylinders are a perfect fit. They just barely touch each other. The
only problem is I only have 3 of the technic 3 bladed rotor piece. If I had
one more it would be perfect. (2 on each end.)
Thought you'd be interested.
