Not to seem ...picky or whatever,
but the term Low pitch is confusing to someone that does not actual fly aircraft,
as it is actually refered to as "Fine" or "Coarse" pitch in aviation.
Low or High does not really describe anything that the propeller is doing.
Don't mean nothing,just I see the term Low and High refered to quite abit.
Yet you will never see that written in any aviation book you need for a pilots license.
It's always refered to as Fine or Coarse pitch,which actually describes what the prop is doing.
Easy
