Hi
How aerodynamic is the front parts and do you have plans for the trailer and the mounting points for the straps onto the trailer?.Will the 12v cable has it own hole to go throw and where will the battery be?.

We haven't done any wind tunnel tests, but the camper tows down the road quite nicely and doesn't seem to be too affected by wind. The rounded corners present a much smaller wetted surface than a flat front.

We don't provide the trailer, but there are any number of utility trailer dealers around the country. I recommend a welded trailer with side rails. I currently run the tie down straps from one side of the camper, under the trailer, to the other side. That seems the simplest although I have installed eye bolts in the rails that I no longer use.

We use a 12V motorcycle battery mounted in a wall cabinet to power the lights. There is also a 120VAC hookup on the door frame with an outlet on the inside. A larger battery could be mounted on the tongue of the trailer and a cable routed beneath the trailer and enter through the door frame if desired.

would a piece of plastic or other similar material in a curved forward shape help reduce drag? I like seen some thing similar on the upper part of a tractor trailer.

Absolutely. Google "V-nose cargo trailer" and you'll find a ton of modern designs that claim double-digit fuel savings.

A 'v-shaped' piece to put on the front might be easier to make and install than a curved piece. If it was transparent, it would not interfere with the view when looking out the window on that side of the camper.
