Do the blades turn as the truck turns cuz it looks like they do at the end and are facing sideways? But maybe thats just the angle of the camera.
The dude walking in front of the truck and a dude at the rear of the truck are actually controlling the axles via remote. The truck driver puts himself exactly where he wants to end up, so he knows what he's doing but it's not 100% on him :manny: Very common technique when you're trying to manoeuvre oversized loads.



0:28 in the vid you can see the breh controlling the modules

Yeah I see what you mean but I'm talking about that big wind turbine thing. Looks like it goes from an I to a T at the end of the video. So I'm thinking if that big thing turns sideways, are they able to straighten it, cuz it's knocking down every tree on its path.

It's just an optical illusion but it confused me for a second as well :russ: The blade is perfectly straight just as it sits on the trailer. The curve of the blade is what makes it look wider than it actually is or that it's somehow turned into that 'T' shape.

I could make that turn


But who ever told him to go that route is a dumbass. Another route might take longer, but it would have been safer
