Randy Mason (Chris Carrara) is a teenage tech whiz who lives in a suburban neighborhood located somewhere in the state of California with his mother Marti (Derya Ruggles) and his father Brent (who's away for the duration of the film on a business trip). Randy designs and uses remote controlled models as a hobby, as well as using the modified controllers for other purposes as well. After being set up by a bully Ben (Jordan Belfi) who uses one of Randy's models to wreak havoc on the school project of his friend Jamaal (Kenneth A. Brown) and getting the blame for it, Randy arrives home to hear Marti saying on the answering machine that she is going to confiscate all of his models. Randy then decides to stash them at the model home which serves as his secret hideout. While hiding out there, He stumbles across three store robbers named Delbert McCoy (John Diehl), Louis (Tony Longo), and Louis' cousin Ritchie Marinelli (Stuart Fratkin). With the use of his remote control toys, as well as a little help from his captive friend and love interest Judy Riley (Jessica Bowman) an avid baseball player, Randy manages to apprehend the three fugitives.
