Was it just me, or didn't the steering wheel move at all from 1:51 - 2:02, eventhough the tractor was going left-right-left-right...? Strange...

are you controleing it

I guess, that brake pedals were connected together, so you couln't help steering with one wheel braking. Am I right?

If you have understeering problems while working, you can operate with a hand throttle (leaves your right foot free) and turn tractor with left or right brake pedal.

Is it possible to use this driving method in driverless driving?

But anyway, RC "toys" are getting bigger and bigger... :-)
