you can achieve the desired 2,5 stud offset, by putting two Plates 1 x 1 Round under the part (one in the hole at one of the ends and the other right next to it) Place it in such a way that the round tiles fit centered between the 4 studs on the recessed middle part of a 9V trainwheel. The studless middle of “Technic Rotor 2 Blade with 2 Studs” allows you to place the Train Bogie Plate on top (The edge of the Bogie Plate would interfere with a stud if you use one of the “1 stud whide” Technic Plates)

With friendly greetings, M. Moolhuysen.

You mean like this, very clever, you’ve done this before, haven’t you! I wondered about the strength at first but the fact that the stud on top of the “Technic Rotor 2 Blade with 2 Studs” meshes with the bottom of the bogie plate just adds that extra rigidity.
