i just did a product shoot of a radio control helicopter and now i need to create a blur effect on the prop blades, to create the illusion they are moving. of course it won't look 100% real, i just need it to be simulated. any suggestions? thanks!

Trace the blades with the pen tool. Then rasterize the path, and apply a motion blur to them. Be sure to do each blade on a different path/layer because the angle of the motion blur is prolly gonna change between the blades.

I could help more by seeing an image of the chopper.
