Terry, I dont recall the issue with your flight, but I think it was that you missed the 2nd turn. The new rules would not help in that case, and more likly if you needed to fly north to a turn, and then south to make the distance the new rules will work against you.

The new rules require you to fly from release to a landing, or a declared turnpoint at least 50km away from your release. So no longer can you "remote start" like you could in the past.
