This may be true for most regular conventional armature winds for brushed motors, and probably even outrunner motors.

But in the case of brushless inrunners, I believe these windings are "wound" or laid in a certain pattern, then compressed and baked inside a mold. When it cools, it retains it's shape so it will fit inside the motor can.
