Based on the camera not moving after it went over, and some sounds at the end, I'd guess the camera was set up on a tripod and the operator wasn't really close.
I found a video of someone who built a working G rotary. Ran kind of fast, but it did move snow! He showed some attempts to clear some snow with a wedge plow, but I suspect if you wanted to do that, you'd have to use something a little heavier than your average model.
It's still a fascinating concept - model against real snow.

At least he kept filming, what a shot. Bet he doesn't do that again, but you never know.
