Magnetic mounting arms for phones and action cameras - the Mag-ProArm for general use, a GoPro-specific version, and a Truck Mount for filming and glassing from a vehicle.

Camera & Phone Mounting
Painted Arrow mounts for filming what happens
Painted Arrow makes magnetic mounting arms that hold a phone or action camera steady on a tripod, a truck window or a pack, so you can film a hunt without a second person holding the camera.
We stock Painted Arrow for people who want a record of the trip rather than a production. The Mag-ProArm and GoPro mount cover most setups; the Truck Mount covers everything that happens from the vehicle.

Why Advanced Outdoors
Why Advanced Outdoors stocks Painted Arrow
Filming a hunt usually fails at the mount. Painted Arrow is in the range because the magnetic system is fast enough to actually get used.
01
Fast to set up
Magnetic attachment means the camera is on and aimed before the moment has passed.
02
Works with what you own
Phone or action camera, tripod or vehicle - the same arm covers the combinations most people run.
03
Steady enough to be watchable
A rigid arm rather than a flexible gooseneck, so long-lens footage is not unusable.
04
Useful beyond filming
The same mounting solves glassing setups, scouting records and vehicle navigation.
Best Use Cases
Where Painted Arrow gets used
Three setups people actually run.
From the vehicle
The Truck Mount for glassing, scouting and navigation from the window.

What to Look For
What to check before you buy
Mounting is unforgiving of small mismatches. Three things to settle first.
-
What you are mounting
A phone and a GoPro need different heads. The Mag-Pro GoPro version exists for exactly that reason.
-
What you are mounting it to
Tripod, window or pack — check the thread and clamp match what you already carry.
-
How much reach you need
A longer arm gives you framing options and costs you rigidity. Shorter is steadier.

Painted Arrow FAQs
What does Painted Arrow make?
Will it hold a phone steady enough to film?
Yes, provided you mount it to something solid. The arm itself is rigid rather than a flexible gooseneck, which is what makes the footage watchable at any distance.
Can I use it for glassing rather than filming?
The Truck Mount in particular works well for holding binoculars or a spotter steady from a vehicle window, which is a large part of why people buy it.
