hallo. I just know, that bee and bees is name for two type of effect.
First is maybe OK, and belongs to paper tubes with one hole in the plug(nozzle). Usually is filled with BP and Aluminum or titanium powder. (5 - 20%).
Their mowing is spiral.
Second effect called bees are small hummers with star composition contain Magnesium or magnalium, in the tube(main composition), not on ends. Hole is on the side and their mowing is straight with high speed rotation and humming sound. This product lightitng enough, because hawe high speed rotation, and human eyes canīt observe this.
Both effect are used in poka shells, with small quantity of granulated black powder.

Go getters are still question for me. Mainly optimal size for tube. Long tubes like 1 1/2 inch are not suitable, not for small shells, because most of go getters from japanese videos burn shortly.

Guys, red gum is too good binder for magnesium and magnalium stars. Improve ignition and burning. Example
26 KP
26 BaN
25 magnalium,
2 charcoal,
15 PVC
6 red gum

This composition burn quick with nice green. You can make cut stars, which is rolled in perchlorate comp to until round. Then you coat them in BP prime.
Composition must be wetted with alcohol, and drying is relative guick. No problems with magnalium-reaction with vater. 6% red gum is optimal, because more percentage cause poor drying and smaller poor solidity. You can use for prime dextrine and 50% etanol, because magnalium is relative protected in main star.

I use torro for making stars every time. Stars are better than with spray technology, have higher density. Torro must have optimal consistence. For small rape seeds must be slop, for 4 - 5mm more dense.
