Hi there & welcome to the forum

In video the shutter speed have a close relation to the frame rate... most cameras won't allow a slower shutter than 1/FPS, meaning the shutter is open the duration of one frame in the video. If the camera allows the shutter to be decoupled from the framerate, going slower than 1/FPS will create very odd effects.

So if the slowest FPS you have is 24FPS... you can't go slower with the shutter than 1/24sec & if close to moving objects (or you fly with speed close to static objects) that will generate a lot of motion blur.

I think your best option is to use After Effects to simulate long exposure video. The result can be really good!
Search for "Long exposure in After Effects" on youtube.

What you are asking about is commonly called a hyperlapse.
You'll find a lot of information if you search for that.

Are you looking to do something like this? I shot this with a DJI Air 2 (or it may have been with my Air 2S) a few years ago.
