It is not uncommon to see time-lapse construction videos, and they offer a really cool view of a house being built. I wanted to extend on that a little and do a time-lapse rotating drone footage video of my house construction.

The Mavic Pro drones have a waypoint mode that allows you can program a flight path and camera direction, and I used that mode to record a flight path panning around the build site. I have done three videos of that flight path so far, and here is a merged video of those three.

I’ll do this same flight path every day, then once the house is done I should be able to build a single video that shows the house being build while also panning around the site from the air.

At least that is the theory.
