Queen bee's attendant (5)

I believe the answer is:

drone

(Other definitions for drone that I've seen before include "Unmanned aerial vehicle" , "Male bee for the queen" , "Male bee - monotonous hum" , "person averse to work" , "Continuous humming sound" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press.
