There is an error in the equations, but after correcting it, I'm still
getting nowhere. The corrected equations are:

R = 1;
M = 1;
L = 1;
g = 9.81;
NDSolve[{Rx[t] + Fx[t] == 2M x''[t], Ry[t] + Fy[t] - 2M g == 0, 
    Fx[t] R == -M R x''[t], -Rx[t] == 
      M x''[t] + (M L \[Theta]''[t] Cos[-\[Theta][t]])/
          2 + (M L \[Theta]'[t]^2 Sin[-\[Theta][t]])/2, -Ry[t] - 
        M g == (M L \[Theta]''[t] Sin[-\[Theta][t]])/
          2 - (M L \[Theta]'[t]^2 Cos[-\[Theta][t]])/
          2, -(L Cos[\[Theta][t]] Rx[t])/2 + (L Sin[\[Theta][t]])/
          2 == (M L^2 \[Theta]''[t])/12, X[0] == 0, \[Theta][0] ==
Pi/2,
    Ry[0] == -M g/2, Rx[0] == 0, Fy[0] == 5M g/2, Fx[0] == 0}, {X,
\[Theta],
    Ry, Rx, Fy, Fx}, {t, 0, 1}]
