I saw this youtube video https://www.youtube.com/shorts/6iecZT73crk , and recreated it by eyeballing the shape visible in the short video, then I used Plasticity to design it and have the airfoils blend nicely with the inner and outer ring.

The white prototype and proof of concept was printed with 0.2mm layer height, but at the moment I'm printing an orange one with 0.1mm layer height (for smoother airfoils)

The prototype flew perfectly and had a perfect return, even though the flightpath wasn't as circular as my triblade boomerangs have. it took me only two throws to get a feel for it and have consistent catches.
