Pros.
1. Connecting the drone with the controller was a breeze
2. Controller is unique. It’s way easier than normal two handed controllers IMO
3. Extremely lightweight. I took it out on my hiking trip and forgot I had it with me
4. 4 adjustable speeds is a plus, especially for beginners
5. Intelligence mode - my friend who recommended this to me said there’s no drone in this segment that has a full-on intelligence function. I tried it in my backyard and it worked pretty well.
Cons.
1. No carrying case. Small enough almost doesn’t need a case but, need one for protection nonetheless. Hope they would come out with one in the future.
2. Too small to see in the distance. Claimed max. distance is about 1000 ft. Couldn’t see the thing once it reached 350 ft.

For first-timers, the take-off-and-hover mode is great. It gives you a chance to get to flying quickly and then you can start to get oriented with the controls while the drone is actually hovering. If anything starts to get out of hand, a quick press on the controller wheel snaps the drone back to hovering. Also, the “quick land” button is great for saving the drone from crashing if you get confused. Just press the button and it auto-lands!
So, what’s it like to fly?
One thing I really like about this is that the drone is very good at sensing whether it’s staying in one spot, and even how high it is above the ground. Against the advice in the instructions, I took it to the park to fly when there were 30 MPH wind gusts. I fully expected the drone to be blown off course, or against a fence nearby. But guess what? It automatically corrected for every gust to stay pretty much right on course.
The basics are solid. Move your thumb up and it goes up. Move it forward and it goes forward. Bring your thumb down to touch the controller and it starts going down. Leave your thumb on the controller and it automatically lands. That means it detects just where the landing surface is and gently sets itself down and turns off the engines. Very cool!
Phone Control
You don’t need to use the app to fly the drone and have a lot of fun, but the app gives you a lot more cool features. First of all, you can connect your phone via Wi-Fi and see the “drone’s eye view” in real time as it flies. At any point, just tap to record video or take still photos. Those are stored on a microSD card onboard the drone, so bandwidth isn’t taken up recording to your phone. Shift
How are the camera features?
The videos are 1080p and are pretty good. The colors are a bit dark, it seems, but you can correct that on your phone or computer fairly easily. I’m a novice drone user, so I found it daunting to focus on flying and filming at the same time. If you have two people, one of you can fly, while the other can use the app to operate the camera.
Automatic camera features include settings like “orbit” and “dolly” which perform common and very useful techniques. I found it hard to exit those modes once I had turned them on. For example, in dolly mode the drone flies side-ways while filming, giving the impression it’s on a dolly. I couldn’t get out of it and it just kept moving. Fortunately, there is always the quick landing feature. So you can get Shift RED safely to the ground to figure out what’s going on, instead of having an in-flight crisis.
Orbit mode is very cool. Just like dolly, but the drone flies in a circle, point the camera inward as it does. The camera doesn’t actually move, but drone itself orients to have the camera point at the center of the circle.
I did not get a chance to try the “follow” mode, so I can’t comment on how well that feature works. It is supposed to lock on to a subject, and then keep that subject in view as the person moves around. Unlike more expensive drones, Shift RED does not detect and avoid obstacles while following (nor in any of these automatic modes). So, you do have to be sure there is enough space for it not to hit anything.
Transferring the video and photo files is easy. I just put the microSD into the larger SD card adapter and popped into the slot on my Mac, where I could then easily access the files.
Power and Charging
Shift RED has powerful engines, very nicely “tamed” by the on-board sensors that keep it level, and aware of the ground. So, even though the drone is small, it is very stable and flies very smoothly. It can hover and very slowly rotate, but it can also speed along quite fast. It’s easy for it to get out of range, though. Fortunately, if it does, it will eventually figure it out by itself and land!
All that takes a lot of juice. Shift RED will run for about 15-20 minutes before losing the ability to connect with the controller. It will refuse to take off if the power is inadequate (either the controller or the drone batter). It warns you if the power is starting to fade by making a noise from the controller and short vibration.
Charge the drone with the included USB-C cable. The controller is charged the same way, but it only comes with one cable. I found that using a standard iPhone USB charging plug with this cable did NOT WORK. So, I plugged directly into my iMac and it worked fine. It takes about thirty minutes to replenish the charge on the drone and a little less time for the controller. If you plan to be out flying for a longer time, consider bringing a battery-powered charger for both.
Overall Impression
A great beginner or intermediate-level drone if you want a stable, responsive, easy to use drone with great features at a size where you don’t need to register to fly it (in most areas - check your local laws). If, like me, you are new to drone flying, Shift RED offers a fun, stress-free experience to get up and running fast, and to use cool filming techniques in your first session. I wish the charge would last longer, but other than that, I highly recommend it.
I first made the mistake of trying to fly it inside the house at night, which ended up not working. I learned after connecting my phone to the drone that the lift-off surface needs to be bright for the drone to take off. I think the sensor is not able to detect the distance properly in dark condition so try flying it outdoors or indoors on a bright surface.
There are 4 speed modes and definitely start with the slowest to learn. Later though it’s fun to raise the speed to the highest which is really fast.
It’s easy to connect to the phone and you should try the programmed modes like dolly, circling, and following. You need to buy a separate micro SD card to put it inside of the drone. It is not the best, but the good video quality and the programmed modes help for the stable recording. I like this drone. I would highly recommend.

Budget is not very high but perfectly decent enough ?
This ‘Made in Korea’ drone is the perfect choice for you. Let me tell you the most innovative thing of this drone- it’s controller... Unlike two joystick controller this drone has done amazing work with remote. I personally liked it very much. Yes it’s a bit different than others and yes it will take time to master but when you do (which is gonna be after 5-6 flights) you are Gonna love this 💕... because it’s not as difficult as you thought it was.
The hand grip, the size of the remote it’s all just perfect.
Next about the drone- yes it’s no folding drone but you don’t need to worry about the size because it’s really compact... around the size of your hand. And you can easily carry it anywhere.
.
The built quality is awesome.... it’s durable. Normal crashes and all it can easily sustain.
But if you need protection- you can easily get guards from Amazon only. I purchased that also because I want my drone to be more super safe.
.
Battery life- you will easily get around 12-15 mins of battery life from normal flying mode. And yes if you fly at lowest quality you can get up to 17 mins. But for me personal best is around 14-15 mins around. You can easily buy extra 2 set of batteries from Amazon itself and give your self extra battery life.
.
Talking about most important thing in a drone - ITS CAMERA- this is a 5 MP camera which can record at maximum 1080 P. So let me tell you the normal footage you shoot on a phone is around 1080 p and in case of phone the subject is nearby to the camera. This drone needs to stabilise the footage, capture from greater distance because of which you might complain about the video quality but you have to understand the issue. This quality is perfect for personal use. Like making a footage if you doing something from above.
There are so many modes on the drone which makes it our perfect travel partner (these features are seen in expensive drones which cost you more than 1 lakh rupees in India 🇮🇳)
.
So overall this drone is awesome for fun, playful, times with innovation for the price of less than 16k INR. You can’t compare this with expensive drones because you obviously have to pay 8-9 times this price.

Reason being:-
1. In this price you only get a highlight pack that doesn't contain extra propellers and propellers guard.
2. Accessories are very costly like extra set of batteries, props, guard. We don't even have a hub available to change multiple batteries at a time
- Flying is little tricky but once learnt it is fun to fly.
- Battery backup is not good not more than 10-12 minutes. (Calculated by stopwatch)
- Video quality is okay however I am not getting audio outof it.
Overall fun to fly, stable, forgeving, app interface is good.
Not suitable for vlogs due to battery backup unless you have pack of batteries.

There are lots of improvements that could be done on the mobile app. Not from the hardware perspective, but software. It doesn't show the metrics on screen like, height, battery percentage - it does have the indicator but option to toggle sometimes becomes crucial when you want to get that last shot at some distance.
The seller is amazing. I called them on multiple occasions and they patiently tried to work things out. I even ordered the propeller guard and battery pack which are now on their way back.
Currently on DJI Mavic Mini - trust me, one thing I'll not regret in my life - Mavic Mini 2 was the wish but research a bit more and you'll know why I chose Mavic Mini instead of Mavic Mini 2 in India! ;)
Dont buy at all its a waste and flight time is only 13 mins on full charge and not 17 mins as written
