So initially I thought that the FCR elevation UP button was literally unclickable with the cursor on the collective, while elevation DOWN was.  I was pretty baffled.  But while making recordings, I found that I actually can click on the button, but it's just that the "click box" for the button isn't quite where the arrow is
So yes I made a bit of a clickbait title lol, but hopefully it'll get some attention.

The reason I discovered this is because when using the FCR I'd prefer to use it as HOCAS as possible, meaning I'm using the cursor to bump the radar elevation up and down.  I'm in VR, so it's a hassle to grab my mouse, spin it around until I find the yellow cross, and then lean down and click the button.  When I could instead just use the cursor on the collective.
Anywhere, here's a video and track showing the issue

Another option would be to have a voice command to elevate and depress the radar. Using Voice Attack you can set an Apache profile that has commands such as "Elevate Radar" and "Depress Radar". Although I am not normally a VR flyer, I have found Voice Attack very helpful for executing actions while keeping my hands on the cyclic and collective.
