Being more specifically, I'm having problems trying to drop this shadow, setting the height and also the background color.

You can customise UISegmentController by sub classing it. Please see below code.

class SegmentController : UISegmentedControl {

 override func awakeFromNib() {
    self.layer.borderWidth = 0
    self.tintColor = UIColor.clear
    self.backgroundColor = UIColor.white
    let segAttributesSelected: NSDictionary = [
        NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor: UIColor.red,
        NSAttributedStringKey.font: UIFont.boldSystemFont(ofSize: 15)
    ]
    let segAttributes: NSDictionary = [
        NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor: UIColor.lightGray,
        NSAttributedStringKey.font: UIFont.boldSystemFont(ofSize: 15)
    ]
    self.setTitleTextAttributes(segAttributesSelected as [NSObject : AnyObject], for: UIControlState.selected)
    self.setTitleTextAttributes(segAttributes as [NSObject : AnyObject], for: UIControlState.normal)
 }

 override func draw(_ rect: CGRect) {
    self.layer.shadowColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
    self.layer.shadowRadius = 2.0
    self.layer.shadowOffset = CGSize.init(width: 0, height: 0)
    self.layer.shadowOpacity = 1.0
    self.layer.backgroundColor = UIColor.white.cgColor
 }
}

Make suitable adjustment to constrains in storyboard to set height and position. Storyboard Screen short

Final output
