It feels a bit like accelerating in a car using a high gear. In fact its nothing else.
Just as a hint. I use a Thrustmaster hotas Warthog. It has a dual throttle lever. For 1 engine planes i set the left throttle to actually be throttle and the right one to prop pitch. In fact during combat i most of the time regulate RPM via pitch. Not throttle.

^ This.
Full throttle plus full pitch does not mean max speed. I use a saitek throttle quad,and have 1 lever for throttle and 1 for pitch,and I move pitch more than throttle.
