I believe it is Stated within the Tyranids codex that they do infact use the gravity of stars to move about faster, also the tyranids space vessels are living creatures as well and therefor do not need other tyranids to operate it. This in my opinion was shown most evidently when a tyranid vessel consumed an entire moon with its "maw" in the 5th edition Tyranid codex. also it is theorized that the C'tan may have created the tyranids to fight against the old ones on a psychic plane which the necrons could not compete, this would also be backed up by the fact that Tyranids have avoided many necron tomb worlds (probably because of lack of biomass). also there has been a mentioning of a few C'tan remaning, one of which whom is the most probable for the Tyranids would have been the C'tan who went insane and fled the galaxy or the C'tan known as the Void Dragon (or it's real name Mag'ladroth) who is sleeping within Mars and who is thought to be the so called machine god of mankind or the omnissiah.
