Maby, it changes, I know mines got a bearing on the way out, and it groans anytime whilst its turning but it goes as soon as i get on the accelerator.

Unlikely if it's only on lift off. I had the same noise with a Stilo i had. If you kept the power on, even just a slight amount it was fine, take the throttle off and it would rumble. Very similar noise to a failed release bearing. But obviously under different conditions.
