No, most fixed pitch props have higher bade angle at the root than at the tip...sort of like the wing on a plane, the pitch angle is higher at the root than at the tip. The pitch of a prop is derived from the pitch measured at 75% of the radius of the prop.

Does that help in reducing the tip sound on props of bigger diameters? I'm not sure of this question as well, I have heard of props that have multiple pitches set along the blades that work better at different RPM's. I understand that most fixed pitch propellers have a constant pitch along the blade.
