Default RE: Prop rpm's

Can anyone tell me what the bennifit of the Zinger type variable pitch props is? I allways wondered about that. It seems like at lower speeds the higher pitch part of the prop would create more drag and at higher speeds the lower pitch would do the same. It seems like you would never see the true bennifit of either ends of the pitch range.

Just curious.
