What is the strongest formulation of Zenos arrow paradox? Does the static account for change avoid it?

The arrow paradox says that between where the arrow is and where it’s going there are an infinite number of spaces/ Since you can never get to infinity, then the arrow can never get there. All Zeno’s motion paradoxes are very similar. They divide space into an infinite number of intervals and then say that since infinity is undefined, motion can’t be defined accurately. Well, Newton and me say nuh uh! Calculus is the mathematics of distinguishing between different infinities and evaluating converging infinite series’ and defining motion through an infinite number of spaces, and explaining that all Zeno proved was that he didn’t understand Calculus (which admittedly hadn’t been discovered yet).
