Welcome to Flyertalk and welcome to the BA forum.

If you were on purely a RDU-LHR service, with no connecting flights into another airport in the UK or the rest of Europe then indeed you are outside EC261 or the UK variant. If you did have a connecting flight it still won't be easy to get EC261 though there are some legal rulings that support this. More information here:
