Most Efficient Speed?

Not convinced about what?
I'm not sure you read my post properly.

You wrote max distance will be close so yes on rereading I agree sorry yes misread it.

yes you are right! I didn’t read it right. I thought you were saying the 18kph was max distance. But yes you and I basically agree the max distance speed will be around 12 m/s the top speed for normal mode.

I believe Ma2 maxium range is about 9.2-9.35km x2 , 28mins flight time in Normal mode , stock battery, 10km if you blessed by weather god

Drumming up this old post! Say, for example, I have a flight and want to film something 1mile away. I want to fly out, film once there, and fly back. (Another example -my battery is low and I need to fly 1 mile back to land but I might not make it - how fast should I fly?

What's the most efficient speed to handle the "commute"?

I'm not talking about the way to get the most minutes out of a battery. I'm talking about the most efficient speed to handle said distance.

Whether you are asking about how to get the max distance from a full battery or a half empty one, the answer is the same.
See post #13 for details.
