Default RPM & WOT question

Someone should invent an easily adjustable, variable-pitch prop. Maybe
I will. I just hate pulling the prop off my OMC.

I think one of the outboard manufacturers (Mercury?) tried to introduce an
"automatic" variable pitch prop many years ago that had two pitch positions.
It was costly, problem prone and it's performance wasn't any better than a
properly sized fixed pitch prop. The prop was a flop.
