Balance of weight is easy... Balance of the forces against the bearing a little harder. But I am definitely coming up blank on the advantages over a smaller two bladed one... Maybe it spares more birds or is quieter...

Less inertia over multibladed turbine.

How is that possible... If it is counterweighted which it seems to be... It has the same mass. But a given amount of wind energy wouldnt be nabbed by as many blades... Seems it would display characteristics of something with more inertia.

That would only be useful in variable winds anyway...
