I think the aluminum could be an excellent choice. Price is not bad either. Very comparable to regular RV canvas awnings. Weather resistant, light, and can retract for proper travel.
What do you all think about my idea.

Have not seen it done yet on an RV. Looks nice. Even if it is available, do you think it would hold up at 17'+ long? If those slats ever bend the crease will be there forever. With the canvas/vinyl you can roll them out all the way and raise them. These look like they roll/slide out but no way to raise them.
