How does the AoA change on a fixed pitch prop?

Clark Lydick of Performance props once explained to me how his wood props are designed to twist slightly to reduce the pitch and get you higher rpm for take-off, but them twist back in cruise providing some of the benefits of a variable pitch prop. It worked fairly well, but the IVO is better.
