Unable to run WebDriverIo tutorial

I'm trying to follow the WebDriverIo tutorial at http://webdriver.io/guide.html .

After setting up the Selenium server, when I try executing the test node script (step 7 in the tutorial), selenium warns me of some errors (see screenshot for full log), and I don't get any output returned.

Steps to reproduce:

I start the Selenium server enter image description here

When I try running the node script, this happens (clock to zoom): enter image description here

enter image description here

At this point a Firefox window opens automatically, and remains blank.

I'm running Firefox v52 and Selenium 3.0.1. I downloaded Geckodriver from https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases

Any obvious thing that I'm missing? I'm very new to Selenium and browser automation, forgive the generic input :)

If you have been here to get your Windows release of gecko driver : https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases, you may have miss this message :

"IMPORTANT: If you use geckodriver with Selenium, you must upgrade to Selenium 3.3 since this release aligns HTTP responses with the WebDriver standard."

(I can see you are in v3.0.1).
