Well, Rarity's horn did levitate her slightly above ground during "The Cutie Mark Chronicles." That's similar, though by no means as extreme as this episode.

It's hard to rationalize all these inconsistencies, but I guess a lot of a unicorn's magic depends on their mental and emotional state. Dangling over a cliff would probably be more adrenaline-based than orchestrating the Ursa Minor's treatment. Harder to think, harder to focus, harder to do magic.
