Sport mode uses up the battery faster. You'll have to make sure you have enough juice to get back. Sometimes it will cut the flight time in half.

Not sure if Smart RTH kicks in when using sports mode.

I think most efficient speed is gps mode with obstacle avoidance off. Nets you about 31mph to 32.....i have always gotten the farthest doing it like this simply put gps is to slow with oa enabled and sport kills teh battery!
