For any engine within a reasonable range using a longer flatter pitch prop will render the following performance changes from a shorter higher pitch prop: Faster slow speed acceleration, shorter take off, faster rate of climb and slower overall top speed. Additionally a longer flatter prop will cause more propellor drag on approach allowing slower approach and shorter landing rollout.
