Default RE: Plane climbs after trim........

All planes will climb with throttle, some just do so more than others,
Not so, depends on the type of aircraft. A straight, fully symmetrical wing plane such as an Extra, Cap, or Edge that is properly set up with zero wing and stab incidence won't climb when the throttle is advanced. The tendency to climb with added power is usually due to the wing having positive incidence. As air speed increases, the wing's angle of attack causes the plane to gain altitude.
