The different versions are different sizes. Go to the sources folder on the DVD on a machine that has a DVD drive and look how big the two .wim files are. Those files are what are going to end up on a flash stick. Among others. 4GB would definitely be big enough, but you might be able to get by with 2GB.

Any idea how big a flashdrive I need?

Standing up WDS might be quicker than that though if you have a 2K3R2 or higher server handy.
