Tobbe, You could possibly use 2 of the Technic 3 bladed rotor parts, rotated 180 degrees from each other. This gives 6 blades, but 3 of them are set back 1 plate's depth. You could possibly build them up a bit to be even. The Technique 3 blade rotor (...) (25 years ago, 21-Sep-00, to lugnet.technic)
