Hello,

First if this is posted in the wrong place feel free to redirect me to a better forum.

I've been following this tutorial.  I've got a FTDI cable connected as described (without the +5v connected) and that seems to be working.  I've set the baud rate as described.  When I get to the section to enter the command "mavproxy.py --master=/dev/ttyUSB0 --baudrate 1500000 --aircraft MyCopter" here is what is shown through the terminal:

odroid@odroid:~$ mavproxy.py --master=/dev/ttyUSB0 --baudrate 1500000 --aircraft MyCopter

Connect /dev/ttyUSB0 source_system=255

no script MyCopter/mavinit.scr

Could it be that I missed something while installing the packages listed in the tutorial?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
