A vehicle control and interface system described herein assists an operator of an aerial vehicle with the operation of an aerial vehicle, including automated control of the aerial vehicle during flight. The system can generate a graphical user interface (GUI) on which lateral guidance and vertical guidance initiation elements are displayed. The system can conditionally disable the vertical guidance initiation element from operator interaction until at least the operator interacts with the lateral guidance initiation element (e.g., to prevent an undesirable roll maneuver during descent). If the operator interacts with the vertical guidance initiation element before engaging lateral guidance, the aerial vehicle may maintain a current altitude rather than climb or descend according to a target vertical guidance route. In this way, the GUI reformats elements based on the operational state of the aerial vehicle and reduces a risk of operational error.
