This, but it's a Meshtastic board powered by photovoltaic fletching so I can fire them high into trees to create a rogue comms network
let me help you rethink your design. the arrowhead is going to take too hard an impact for pcb. you want to put all that in the shaft near the fletching so you don't have to run as much wire.
nrf52840 I presume. ESP32 needs a bit too much battery for a bow.
