Um, we may need more into on this including a video so we can see what is going on. But let me give this a shot.
Check your belt in the tail and make sure it's only rotated 45*. to me, it sounds like the belt is twisted way too much. If that is not it, then start looking at the gear. But my money is on the belt. If it stays twisted too much, and it does spin, you will hear a ratchet sound, and it will kill the belt in about 5 seconds. Hope this helps. If not, shoot us a short video of what it's doing.

That looks like either a motor or ESC issue right there. here are a few things you can try. Put your trim on your throttle all the way down. If that doesn't work, leave the trim all the way down, turn on your Tx and raise the throttle all the way up, plug in the heli. When you hear two beeps, lower the stick all the way. This will reset the throttle end points and give it a better program in the ESC with more steps. if that doesn't work, I would be calling or emailing the place you purchased the heli from, you may have gotten a bad motor/ESC.
Can you spin the motor by hand by spinning the blades? Do you have another ESC you can use to see if it's the ESC? Do you have another motor to try out?
