I like your first build more, I'm a huge fan of the Warden Squad but only when used as a dedicated bomber with no TLT. That being said, your Gold Squad is the clear priority target for your opponent in your first list, as it is your only control element and therefore only threat to high PS aces. It will be focused down so you need to make sure the rest of your list can punish your opponent for committing to killing the Y-Wing. The clear "weak point" offensively is your Prototype Pilots. They don't have ATs and while they make good blockers, they don't do much else. I think you would be better off dropping one of them entirely and using those 15 points to bolster the rest of your squad. I would spend those 15 points as following:

Give the B-Wings FCS (4)

Make the proto a GSP (2)

Give the GSP Autothrusters (2)

Give the GSP PTL, Outmaneuver, AWTP (6)

Outmaneuver can actually make those 2 attack dice sting, especially vs. opposing TLT carriers, which will munch your B-Wings. Coupled with PTL and AT it essentially turns the GSP into a mini ace against opposing 4x TLT lists like "thug life" that should be able to clean up against low PS stuff if your Bs and Y can trade evenly.

Oh, and give your Y the BTLA4 Title, that way you can actually double stress someone in arc.

Thanks man. Any others willing to pitch in?
