Hi dcvail,
Welcome to 'Foamville'.
Your design is a great approach I think, and doable if you
have enough "do" to do it!.
My family had a 13ft Hi-Lo telescoping TT way back when
I was growing up. Your design will be a much more
sophisticated version.
To show you that great ideas often arise simultaneously,
here are a couple links that may be of use for you:
The first is an attempt at a Foamie telescoping camper/
mini-houseboat from a few years ago on the forum here.
It wasn't finished, but is still interesting:

outfitter for his own use with his touring motorcycle. His
Prototype #2 is a fast build that looks very polished for a prototype.
His proposed Prototype#3 sounds like it is a twin to your
design - and he's going for a 220lbs [yes that's correct] final
trailer weight! This has to give you inspiration and a confirmation
of the validity of your proposed design/build.

with the documentation and pics!
