I decided to take some slow motion (240 fps) video of my arrow in flight, to check out the flight of my newly built arrows and because it sounded like something fun to do with all this extra time on my hands. So I mounted my iPhone X on a tripod, and set the slow motion FPS to 240 and took a few videos from several angles. It turned out better than I thought, but now I'm looking into higher FPS to get an even better view. Was wondering if anyone has experience/recommendations for super slow motion video capture.

 
Pretty sweet, looks like the arrow had some tail whip? Its hard to see from my phone maybe not. What are the arrow specs?
 
I didn’t see any when I looked at it on the laptop, but one of the reasons I want to increase the FPS is to get better visibility into the flight.
 
How did you post these videos to the site? I’m too dumb to figure it out but I’d like to post a video on a different discussion? A video I recorded on my phone specifically.

Upload video to Youtube then paste the link here.

That arrow has the A&A fletch, There is a whistle there. Which broadhead is on it?
 
That’s the Cutthroat 250, will have to try it with the Meathead and with vanes to compare.
It's got me wondering. I'm at the point where I need to pick my fletchings. Try shooting a field point to see how much if any of the sound is coming from the A&A fletch. I recognized you are left handed, my condolences. I too am afflicted. I did want to mention also that your arrow flight looked great. Good job on the arrow build and tuning.
