Hi, Simon: I ran into that same error when I was installing Windows 10 via Bootcamp on my own late 2013 era Airbook. I don't recall all the details because this was some time ago, but I do recall enough that I can confidently tell you the error is misleading.
The problem is not the available capacity of your USB media device. The error is what OS X believes the state of your Bootcamp installation is. If memory serves, I cleared the issue for myself by going to Bootcamp and asking it to delete a supposedly existing installation. I know Apple is usually more button-down than that, but perhaps this is an exception that proves that rule.
