Have you measured your stab and wing incidences? My first hunch is that you have too much positive incidence in the wing. Usually climbing while under power is a common trait with a powered sailplane but is influenced by incidence, airfoil and CG. One of my powered sailplanes took a mix to add down elevator with throttle. Once power is off elevator goes back to neutral.
