Thanks Max,
I was thinking about the lights too. Could a capacitor be placed in the light circuit?
Closeup photos and video are brutal. It doesn’t look as bad when just watching the engine. Also, I took the video at St Louis RPM last weekend and lighting in the hall where the layout was set up was very low.

Yes, I would think a capacitor wired across the LED would help. Make sure to get the polarity right, of course, and I don't know how much room you have. You could try a 10 uF to see if that's enough to get rid of the problem. Hopefully, you won't need more than that, to keep the component size down.
