You really need to consider break over and under angles here or you'll constantly be dragging the back or front of your trailer with any kind of ramp angle you encounter. Aerodynamically, I don't think there is any significant advantage to "Low as you can go" on a trailer behind a vehicle. It could be argued that too low might hurt aero drag. I'd be very careful on the ground clearance of the trailer, or build in some extreme skid plates while engineering the trailer to not fold in half when suspended by both ends.
