It's definitely not depending on mass or distance, as if so she would have trouble controlling her shield (which is bigger, and tends to be away from her), which she hasn't.

I think any problem she has with her Semblance, is because of how she uses it. She focuses on being careful and relatively subtle. And we both know things can get harder the more precise and careful you try to be. It's easy and simple to take a curve while driving a car with no caution and risk slamming against the wall. It's not as easy to try to take the curve perfectly while not crashing against anything and still keeping nearly the same speed.

So Cinder is going to force her sembalance out in the open to take away the advantage she derives from hiding her sembalance.
