I am searching for the processor for the Zeus 3S 7" and cannot find anything more than the "high-performance quad-core processor". The so called "Glass Helm" device has a iMX 8 integrated six-core processor. I could find the tech specs. All the docs I see only state: "The Zeus³'s high-performance processor". *grumble*

I guess 7” chart plotter, a $1,300 value with maps for entire east coast! Bam! We’re cooking now! Ready for my trans-Atlantic trip to Portugal by way of the Azores, a 2022. This chart plotter can handle it! Global. It is good to know where I am and what lay ahead!
