Using droids is unsavoury (6)
I believe the answer is:
sordid
'unsavoury' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives. Perhaps you can see an association between them that I don't see?
'using droids' is the wordplay.
'using' is an anagram indicator (the letters used in a different way).
'droids' anagrammed gives 'SORDID'.
'is' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sordid that I've seen before include "meanness" , "Squalid or ignorable" , "Morally degraded" , "Dirty and unpleasant" , "Squalid, not honourable" .)
