this black model is 8246 but the red model is model #8341.Is the red model which is $20 cheaper, newer, better or is it the exact same as black model?

Should be the same. Black works with most color schemes and is more popular.

Is there any reasonable explanation why the ones in color cost more than the black one?

I bought the black model aside from the color difference, should be the same.

The red one has wheels on the front and back, the black one only has wheels on the back and pegs on the front. I ordered the one pictured in red and received the black one. The next day amazon changed the picture. I wouldnt count on getting the red one. Toys r us had both models and the red one was $100 more expensive.

I have no idea why the black model would be more expensive, but what I can tell you and the red is beautiful!

I dont know the difference between the red models and these. I can say that since the tech got it repaired last year I havent had any problems. So far so good.

I presume you mean black . . . I wanted red, so I did not worry about other colors, but I think the black one was priced higher and/or it was not eligible for Amazon Prime.

The yellow one is the replacement version (versus the original red version). I also had the red one, which had deteriorated over several years, and replaced it with this one (yellow). It seems to be working just fine after 2-3 months of use. No problems.

The red one seems to be a little thicker than the black one that I see here. I hoe that this helps.

Same here...the design of the black version is identical to the beige one. It works perfectly and is very easy to install and remove.

I have the red and a friend has the black and they are equally sturdy cameras. The black is a dull finish and the red is a shiny finish which might be why it looks like they are made from different materials. I think the color and finish is just a preference. My friend and I both love our cameras.

the older units had a black control knob. The new model has a red knob but lights the same as the older model. everything connects at the same position as the old.

I had both the black one and the silver one....both are the same. Depends on what color you want. The silver one is the first edition...so you might be able to get a better deal. I liked the black one because it matched every thing I had better. Both operates exactly the same. Be aware you will need to adjust the pedal switch to operate correctly on either one. See YouTube

If it is the same model that I am thinking it is, color would be the only difference. Check model number and specs. closely I do not not recall a black model when I ordered mine. Check the specs. real good.

Amazon may be able to answer better than I, but it looks like the FD-80 is a newer model. They look the same to me.
