Differences between FrSky receivers?

Can anyone do a list of Frsky recievers and what special about them?
For the life of me I can't get the difference between a D8R-II and D8RSP.

Some recivers we should list:
D8R
D8R-II
D8R-II Plus
D8RSP
D6FR
D4FR
D4R-II
VD5M


My guess is that the V*R series are non telemetry, the D*R are telemetry and the TF are for Futaba, am I right?

V,D,TF, correct

Some of the D8 variations have to do with how the analog inputs are routed.

D8RSP has sum PPM out and 7 servo signals.

Also I think that the newer versions of the D8R don't need the frsky upgrade light to be upgraded.

The dicontinued D8R V2 also..

I don't think the D6FR can be upgraded.. at least it doesn't say on the specs.. maybe frsky could tell us how if they make the new firmware for it

I hope this helps..

They have started a chart on RCG showing all the D series.
FrSky should have done this a long time ago!
