Is my thinking correct so far? :C:
@Cool this is a good thread on the lipo nomenclature lipo

According to FMA,you don't use a y-harness to connect the LVC wires when using multiple scorpion packs in series.
They have a standard response e-mail explaining the connections,you basically just daisy chain the LVC wires from the 2 packs together.So one pack plugs into the ESC,the other into the reciever and the 2 packs just plug together.(no additional wiring needed).This was my understanding from their e-mail anyway.
If you send them an e-mail asking how to connect the LVC wires when using multiple Scorpion packs in series then they'll send you the standard response so you can check that i haven't misunderstood.
I was confused by their reponse at first because in many pics of the packs you can only see one LVC wire but if you look at the manual there appears to be 2,one to the ESC and one to the reciever,as you said.
You only need one y-harness not three.(deans harness to connect power wires in series)
