After a session of flying i was hovering around getting ready to land after wearing out the battery,(12-15% left) and i was 3" foot off the ground when the voice of siri's sister, "auto home landing in 5 secounds".  When i lowered it, I was literally 6" off the ground landing it and then it jacks forward like i was mashing up on controller.  Anyways, it caught the front legs in the grass and did an endo face plant upside down.  The legs were down and it protected the gimble.  Luckily, nothing was damaged, but if i was 2 ft highed i would of hit the side of my house and broke a leg or something.  

I will be uploading the video shortly.

Bizzare. So you think the auto RTH engaged as you were trying to land it? Seems like the first thing it would try to do is climb to RTH altitude, then return to home point for landing, not just dart forward. Look forward to the video.

Had my first crash today aswell and was lucky it never ripped the camera off. Just slowly went to the left an dipped down, why I don't know, snapped two propellers though it definitely should be a bit slower on the forward stick

You know you can turn down how sensative those sticks are! You seem to be flying pretty low for the speed you were doing. Well if you broke only 2 propellers then your lucky!
