Oh duh I can't even read 
... On my arduino there are two lights representing tx and rx. They should blink both. If there's only one that blinks, there are a few options; if none blinks, there's no signal coming through. In that case (and I think you would have mentioned it if it did), if you put an led with a resistor (1k) on your raspberry's tx, you can trace where it goes wrong. To check the detailed logging from the pypilot, shut it down from the openplotter tool and run it at the command prompt (see attached). You should then see lines like servo probe ('/dev/ttyS0', 38400); that's where it prods the arduino. When it does, the led on the pi's tx should blink. If it does not, either the tx output port is broken, or the name of the device is wrong.

ok yeah no lights are showing up on the nano adruino....
i am actually using the tinypilot through the web based page, so connecting through its wifi and loading the pypilot.io in my web browser.
i though i did not have to use the pipilot through openplotter?
i will get the log later this evening -- but yeah it is like the pi zero pypilot is not sending any signals and thats where i need help with troubleshooting please
