True but so long as you have no 240v devices (most RVs don't), you can feed both legs of the 50amp from the single 30amp. A lot of the adapeters do just this.
The catch is you are limited to 30amps total while a 50amp gives you 2 - 50amp legs so, you have to watch what is running or you can pop breakers...or burn something out if the breaker doesn't give first. Running both air/con units is likely to be an issue but one should be fine.
