The RockyMounts BackStage Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # RKY10002 only comes with the ability to carry 2 bikes but I do have a solution for you to carry 3 bikes and utilize a swinging arm like what comes with this bike rack.
For your application I highly recommend using the Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack for 3 Bikes # KU24FR and pairing it with the Kuat Pivot 2 Swing Away Hitch Extender # PVP20B to get that swing-away feature you're looking for. I really like the Transfer V2 because it has the open frame design that makes it easier to install the bikes as you can step inside the frame.
Attached are some review videos for you to check out.
