Description should include the following:
- The propeller is a rotating airfoil, subject to induced drag, stalls, and other aerodynamic principles that apply to any airfoil.
- It provides the necessary thrust to pull or, in some cases, push the aircraft through the air.
- The propeller itself is twisted, so the blade angle changes from hub to tip. The greatest angle of incidence, or the highest pitch, is at the hub while the smallest angle of incidence or smallest pitch is at the tip.
