Q: 2. Would RØDE NTG4+ be too heavy for this particular boom pole?

Q: 5. how many weight can it handle at full length 10 feet long when horizontal handing ?

A: I'm not sure of the actual weight limit for it. I can tell you I use a Rode NTG4+ and a Blimp and it holds that fine. You can tell it feels a flimsier with the carbon fiber construction that a metal pole. I would guess putting more than about 10 lbs on it would be too much for it.
