Any Tipps on practical Ballena upgrades, long hauls / cruising speed / efficency and so on...!?

Hey i am loving this game so far! great work from the devs and an equally great community it seems.
I have a few questions and i hope someone can help me to figure it out. here comes the rambling:

I came to the conclusion, that many upgrades are not really an upgrade... (exept for very specialized use maybe).
Using my Ballena i have upgraded to the light chassis, having to repair more frequently is a penalty i gladly accept. But after installing the smaller set of extended batteries i quickly reverted to the standard ones. +4000 capacaty +4000 Weight didnt give me real extra mileage.

Now i am hesitant what to get!? are the butterfly engines an option to reduce the weight further and get more mileage and better speed?!

i can't really figure out fuel consumtion!? i don't really take deliveries over 50k, because i hate to crashland and call a drone for every delivery.

mostly i start vtol, and switch to winged flight immediatly at 150ms (what i figured to be a safe speed without major drop) - depending on spped and altitude i sometimes cut the engines when im 10-8k from my destination and decrease altitude gliding. but apart from that it doesnt really make a difference if i go full blast 380-420ms or try "soaring" at 20-30% throttle. i can hardly get more than 60k!? is that intended!? major wind situations aside.

are there keyupgrades for a ballena long distance setup?
is the ox maybe better suited for long haul upgrades !?

looking forward to read about your experiences.

regards

Marc
