An assembly for an aircraft propulsion system includes an open propulsor rotor and an open guide vane structure. The open propulsor rotor is rotatable about a rotational axis. The open guide vane structure is axially next to and downstream of the open propulsor rotor. The open guide vane structure includes a plurality of open guide vanes arranged circumferentially about the rotational axis. The open guide vanes include a first open guide vane. The first open guide vane includes a camber line, a leading edge, a trailing edge, a leading edge section and a trailing edge section. The first guide vane extends longitudinally along the camber line from the leading edge to the trailing edge. The leading edge section is configured to pivot about a pivot axis. The trailing edge section is configured to move relative to the leading edge section to change a camber of the first open guide vane.
