TL. DR.

Probably there is not enough space.

Not enough space

The image is about 7.7 GB. Some 8 GB cards are manufactured in a way that there is only 7.6GB of space on them. Yes. Manufacturers are lying. You should get used to it. They will try all kinds of marketing tricks to sell you something with almost the features that you need, but not entirely. A quick solution is to buy a 16GB SD card (that will have approximately 15.4GB of space, but we already know that manufacturers are lying to us, don't we :))

Perfect STEM course. Module 1 - Smart Car with Raspberry PI

Disassemble a remote control car. Change the brain of the car with a smart computer like Raspberry Pi. Build a smart device with artificial intelligence that you could control from your phone and that could freely navigate itself in the real world and on the Internet. Use your hands. Develop programs for your robot and your phone. Be curious and invent.

The perfect course lives up to its name. You move through the content, we check it and return feedback to you.

In the end, you should be able to better understand how to program and design smart devices that would make the world a better place. For everybody age 12+, 16+, 21+, 35+, etc. The hardware costs about 150$. It changes through the years so it might take some time for you to find it as Raspberry PI, motor drivers, power banks and h-bridges.. they change. Note that the course was designed to be led by a teacher with a decent knowledge in embedded hardware and software. This, on the other hand should not stop you, if you are curious.
