I made a little video for you, trying to explain how I'd approach the other positions of the major scale when it comes to right hand technique.

Just to kind of sum up what I'm explaining in the video;
Whenever you play a scale descending, using 3 notes per string, I'd use a pull-off between the 2nd and 3rd note of each string.

When you play an ascending scale, I tend to slide the note if the notes are a half step apart, but only if the starting point is from my 3rd or 4th finger (left hand). Otherwise I'd pick both notes, or use a hammer-on (in most cases.. sometimes I might slide the index finger as well, like when I play the A major scale ascending in the 2nd position just like in this video...)

So you'll notice that there might be some "rules" that I stick to, but not all the time - so it is a bit tricky to find the exact way I would play these positions. Nowadays I see the major scale as one big pattern all over the guitar neck, and I usually don't practice the 5 different positions up and down in this way anymore. But it's still a great way to practice your right hand technique! I would suggest to work on this, and find your own way of playing it - maybe inspired by some of my ideas and right hand patterns! :)
