If you're stuck on a FP prop, Craig Catto makes an excellent prop for the purpose.

A constant speed will give you the best climb, top end, and cruise - but the Catto can come very close in some areas and slightly exceed in others, at a little less weight and significantly less cost.

But I still love my WWRV200 and won't trade for it. I absolutely love holding 2000 fpm on initial climb and having airspeed to spare.
