Hi all!
After researching thru ESP modules firmware options I found a better option of the firmware for the switch. It's ESPurna firmware. The main advantages I see in ESPurna are: compile-time module definition and async MQTT.
Currently ESPurna firmware for LightFox dual is tested on my instances. It works OK. The firmware is available for download on github: https://github.com/foxel/esp-dual-rf-switch/blob/v3/esp01-firmware/espurna-1.13.4-dev-foxel-lightfox-dual.bin
Long time no see guys.
The best news for the project is that it got to stable version tested and deployed :) Bad news later.

Was trying to use attiny44 instead of 441 for a week but failed with software UART timings.
Then received 441 which was initially planned and UART worked like a charm.
The firmware is split in two parts: ESP8266 firmware and Attiny441 firware.
For ESP8266 part i've decided to fork Sonoff-Tasmota and use Sonoff DUAL UART protocol for controllers communication. For attiny i've designed firmware by myself.
Currently the main use-case is covered and I can control channels from RF and MQTT. Still need to address RF binding/cleaning by triggering button from attiny.
Also the project is now available on GitHub: https://github.com/foxel/esp-dual-rf-switch
And finally demo:
So I recently received PCBs from jlcpcb.com. It cost me about $8 including delivery. Pretty cheap I think.
