I have got the iFan03 working correctly with the RF remote and HA. It requires only ESPHome, no other automations or nodeRed. I have gather all my information from a number of posts relating to the iFan02 and iFan03 from the forums and used them all to complete the code, thank you to everyone who shared their code.
In order to make this work you will need to create a “ifan03.h” file in your ESPHome folder within the HA config folder. Then you will need to copy the following code into this file:
#include "esphome.h"
using namespace esphome;
class IFan03Output : public Component, public FloatOutput {
public:
void write_state(float state) override {
if (state < 0.3) {
// OFF
digitalWrite(14, LOW);
digitalWrite(12, LOW);
digitalWrite(15, LOW);
} else if (state < 0.6) {
// low speed
digitalWrite(14, HIGH);
digitalWrite(12, LOW);
digitalWrite(15, LOW);
} else if (state < 0.9) {
// medium speed
digitalWrite(14, HIGH);
digitalWrite(12, HIGH);
digitalWrite(15, LOW);
} else {
// high speed
digitalWrite(14, HIGH);
digitalWrite(12, LOW);
digitalWrite(15, HIGH);
}
}
};
Now you can start building your yaml file using the code below:
esphome:
name: bedroom_ifan03
platform: ESP8266
board: esp01_1m

- ifan03.h

The last raw RF remote code can be utilized to toggle anything additional in HA, you will see in my code I use it to turn on the ambient lighting in the bedroom.
Assuming that you have paired your remote to the ifan03 before hand, you should be able to use the remote immediately after reboot, and HA will update the status of the fan accordingly.
RF Remote Pairing: To pair your remote with the iFan03, power off the unit, then return power to the device and press and hold any button on the remote within 5 seconds. and you should here a beep from the iFan03. You will not be required to relearn all the RF codes.
Additional Tinkering: The iFan03 is equip with a buzzer which can be used to beep every time a button is pressed on the RF Remote
