The flicker will driver you nuts. I used regular LEDs on my F-14. I played 1 game and got a headache. It's like staring at a monitor when the refresh rate is turned down low. Some people it bothers and some people don't even notice it. For me, I wasn't able to see the overall harshness of the on/off and transitions, but the instant headache told me it was there. I bought the LED OCD for it and it made all the difference. Transitions were smooth. The lighting flowed. It was like melted LED butter.
I never LED'd a pin after that without a LED OCD. For me it made all the difference in the world. I cannot praise this product enough. Talk to anyone that has bought and installed one. You won't find a single person that didn't notice the change it made or that was unhappy with the product.
