> Folks can correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe for a dropdown you'd want to use the behavior described in the ARIA menu button pattern https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-practices-1.1/#menubutton
I'd also add on mobile such as with iOS VoiceOver won't be able to send up and down arrows through to the page-- so for drop downs on mobile you will need to consider making it work without relying on specific keycodes for the arrows.
