climb and cruise prop
I have tried several different propellers on my RV-3. The most impressive change occured when I got a constant speed (CS) propeller. The LOM engine in my RV-3 wasn't set up for a hydraulic CS propeller, so I installed an electric CS propeller.
Take off roll is remarkably shorter. The angle of climb at maximum climb rate is impressive. A totally different aircraft.
