I am rebuilding my blade, and noticed that at 0 throttle my motor spins slowly. It's definetly no idle up speed, but the low end seems out of adjustment. Anyone know how to setup the ESC?

Try lowering the throttle trim lever on the transmitter a bit and see if that stops it
I keep my trim all the way at the bottom

Go into travel adj menu rasie your lower to like 110 - 115 until it stops then match the upper travel setting with throttle hold on.

I suspect you connected power on your heli with the TH switch in the 1 or On position on your Tx. I experienced this same thing and determined it only happens when the above conditions occur.
All you have to do is disconnect your power, place all swittches on your Tx to the 0 or Off positions, then reconnect power on your heli. Just make sure your throttle is full down when you do this.
Let me know if this works for you!
