ok boys i have a bit of a delimma that ihope yall can help with...
before i went with the carbon arrows i was shooting below 250 fps and after streamlining my string and going to a lighter arrow i'm shooting 273 fps.but my broadheads(steelforce) are going all over the place... like im shooting screwballs... went with a heavy heicle and helped some but still not like before at slower speeds.... so im thinking of going back to the slower speed... so that means i will have to re stock on a lot of equipement.... unless i can get some helpful input from you guys...
Can you provide us with more info that may help us to try and help you ...as to
What poundage are you shooting?
What Draw Length are you shooting?
What Shaft Length are you shooting?
What Arrow and What Spine Carbon are you shooting?
What Point and Broadhead weight are you shooting?
What Bow are you shooting?
What Rest are you using?
Have you spin tested your arrows with the Broadheads on them?
What is the FOC on your arrow ?
Have you paper tuned the bow with feild points and with Broadheads?
Can you post any pic's of your bow setup?

Did things change when you switched arrows, or when you sped up the bow? Simply speeding up the bow normally doesn't cause that much trouble, especially at the speeds you are talking about, but it could change the spine of the arrow required. However changing arrows, messing with the weight on the string and that sort of stuff will profoundly mess with how things work.
There is whole list of things that could be wrong now. Did you re tune the bow? Are your arrows good? Are they the correct spine for your bow? You can't just slap new arrows on and expect everything to work perfect. Especially when going from aluminums to carbons. You said you are shooting a helical fletch, are you sure you are not getting fetching contact? Even with a drop away you can have fletching contact, they need to be checked and set up properly.
We would need to know a lot more information before we could even start guessing what your problem is.

thanks "guys" for taking the time to help
FOC, Spine, properly built arrows, and correctly installed inserts. Lots of things go into building a great hunting arrow. Give the info asked for above and everyone will chip in some advice. You should be able to shoot the faster speeds without a problem if everything is as should be.
