Yes. I think. Maybe?Yes/no part 107? I am now truly confused.

That is how I understand it. From what I can tell I have more freedom for what I can do without a 107.@sar104 can answer better than I but as I understand it a hobbyist can legally fly at night. Don't take what I say and run with it because I am new to drones. Wait for one of the experienced guys or gals to chime in.

Because now the 107 guy cannot fly at night?
Maybe interpreting doing 107 stuff cannot fly at night.
Surly the guy with the license isn’t more restricted than the guy just walking out of best buy with a mavic zoom. ( I did buy my zoom at best buy).
So the only advantage of 107 is basically work.Flying at night under Part 107 requires an FAA waiver.
You can fly at night for recreation but not under part 107 without the waiver. It really is confusing i dont see the difference but that's the rules as I understand them.So the only advantage of 107 is basically work.
Day only unless the faa grants you a wavier.
Guess I will stay a hobbyists. Probably make more money teaching how to fly this thing anyway.

107 lets you fly B] airspace) In some airspace areas, recreational rules would require contacting dozens of airports/helipads/seaports. I find this a pretty solid benefit to part 107.
With a 107 you can fly in most controlled airspace now using LAANC. It is great. You enter your flight plan etc and you get an instant text authorization from the Tower. AirMap has it as a feature.
Yeah, agree LAANC is great, I just wish it covered every airport/controlled airspace area. There are quite a few areas where I want to fly that haven't joined LAANC yet (I believe due to having contract towers versus FAA-run towers). For the non-LAANC areas, you have to apply for authorizations via the FAA DroneZone site and they can take up to several months to be approved.
As I understand it... with a 107 you can also fly under hobbiest as long as you are not paticipating in a money making endevor. I log my flights as both 107 and hobbiest. So... If I was to fly at night it would have to be a non profit flight... YES???
