Welcome to the forum @fast life! We would be glad to try and help. When a drone like this is new and un-configured for "switch arming", it usually arms with "stick arming" (not recommended by it is default), try holding the left stick down and to the right for a few seconds to arm and down and to the left to disarm as in the diagram below to see if that works. If you can find the USB plug on the Flight Controller then I would learn enough to change the quad to switch arming.

To get information about the setup we'll need to know the make and model of the drone , your controller, goggles etc.

Arming is when the motors startup and spin in preparation to fly, you should ONLY do this with the props removed at this time until you fully understand how things work and are ready to take it out to a large field for your first test hover.
If you have a smart phone you may want to look for an app called "Tapatalk", it will allow you find and access this forum and take and post pictures much easier than you can on the website. It does crash sometimes for me but I just force it closed and open it again. I will reply in a minute with a screenshot of the app so you can see what it looks like.
 
Here is Tapatalk on my phone and what it looks like in Apple iPhone anyways. As you can see it makes it easy to take pictures and post them. IMG_0857.JPGIMG_0859.JPGIMG_0858.JPG
