And if packs are same type and brand etc parallel using should do OK.
If they are not equal I am not recommend to doi it because difference in cells will rise and avarage can be OK but for example one weak cell will be over discharged.

Ideally, the higher voltage cell charges the lower voltage cell until they reach an equilibrium, but it must be such that Lipos would need to be paralleled for a long period of time to do so. TrueRC and MaxAmps both build packs with cells in parallel, but with the cells constantly connected, it should be much eaiser for them to maintain equilibrium.
Based on what you've personally experienced though, I can't help but recommend separate balancers for each pack.
