Replace Spirit 2 with Spirit RS - copy settings over?

I have a well-adjusted Spirit2 on a Trex 700X and am removing it to install a Spirit RS. The Spirit 2 already has a new home to go to.. :D

If I backup the Spirit2 settings and import them to the 'RS, what do I need to check / adjust for the new setup?

Am I correct to assume:
1. It is necessary to go through the setup wizard for servo adjustments, etc?
2. I can use the Jeti - DS12 transmitter settings from before, just re-bind to the 'RS?

Can I use imported settings for gains, stabi, banks, etc.?

Of course I can write-down all settings from the Spirit2 and transfer them to the 'RS, but I'm asking if there's a quicker (safe) way.

Many thanks,
Andy

I'm not sure of the answer, and I'm interested to know if settings can be down/uploaded to different model spirits (red to pro, red to s2, etc.)

I assumed it couldn't be done last time I needed to do this (spirit red to spirit 2) so I took screen shots and did it manually.
The flight performance was also slightly different so I needed to tweak the setup anyway, but was in the right ballpark.

The d4s online viewer didn't support v2.8 so couldn't use that.

A 'compare D4S' screen in the software that supported all versions would be very helpful (hint Tomas [emoji57]).

There is a way to display version 2.8.0 and 3.1.0 profiles. You must load the profile 4ds file it into a version 2.7.1 Spirit Settings application in demo mode, create a new profile 4ds file and then upload that one.

Everything should work immediately after loading settings from other unit.

So settings from any unit type can be loaded into any different unit type? Eg I can load spirit pro settings into a spirit red?
