hi

i am trying to set up mavproxy with a raspberry pi + apm 2.6 using the instructions here:

http://dev.ardupilot.com/wiki/raspberry-pi-via-mavlink/#Testing_the_connection

im up to the "testing the connection" step, 

the apm doesnt seem to respond to anything i type

this is what i get in terminal (ssh to the pi from mac)

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ mavproxy.py --master=/dev/ttyAMA0 --baudrate 57600 --aircraft MyCopter

Connect /dev/ttyAMA0 source_system=255

no script MyCopter/mavinit.scr

Log Directory: MyCopter/logs/2015-09-09/flight5

Telemetry log: MyCopter/logs/2015-09-09/flight5/flight.tlog

MAV> Waiting for heartbeat from /dev/ttyAMA0

none of the commands suggested on the above url have any response, idk whats wrong,
