FET Reverse Voltage/Current Protection?

Hi again, I’m working on the V3 for our retractable lightsaber - we are using one of the LED FET pins to control a DC motor for retraction, with the positive wire of the motor connected to the battery positive and the negative wire connected to the LED1 pin.

However, there is a situation where the motor will be physically forcefully rotated in the opposite direction, to my understanding generating a reverse voltage/current. Will the FET, board, and battery be okay with this? Or do I need to add something like a Schottky diode in between the motor and the board? Any help would be much appreciated :pray:

The FETs on the board already have reverse current protection diodes in them.
Within reason (~10A per fet) this should be fine.

Okay got it, thank you!
