Bear in mind flat bottom wings do climb under power. But if it’s very noticeable it could be the thrust angle

Is the airplane sensitive in pitch? The more you fly the worse it is? LOok at CG.
let us know what you find
As I said, the CG is at 3". That's what the manual says. I added a 1/16" thick washer behind each upper engine mounting bolt. Been too rainy to fly since then.
